Cannot boot HAOS on Raspberry Pi 3B+ #3364
Comments
Unlike newer models, Raspberry Pi 3B/3B+ doesn't use EEPROM for any of the boot stages, everything is on the SD card, so we can probably rule out anything "on the device" being out of date. The firmware responsible for booting ( Since you're so far the only one reporting the issue and I am not able to reproduce it on my setup here, I suggest to focus on your setup. Are there any differences when testing with the 3B and 3B+ - e.g. a different power supply? Have you a different one to test with? You can also try appeding |
Just to add another data point, I am also a Pi3+ user that had a failed upgrade from 12.1. System was in some sort of reboot loop, with the NIC responding to ping for about 30 seconds, then not responding for another minute or so. That cycle just repeated until I restored to the previous backup from a fresh SD install. I did not put a display on it or troubleshoot further, but I wanted to at least confirm I saw a similar problem. If it recurs when I update again, I'll try and get more details. Appreciate all the awesome work the team does! |
Hi there - Thanks for the reply! Yup, I know that the 3B+ doens't store on EEPROM (all on SD card) - which explains why OctoPrint can boot - it seems like the FW files in the SDcard boot partition between the HAOS and OctoPrint images are significant;y different. The fact that HAOS is booting on the 3B and not the 3B+ also reinforces this. This is furthermore supported by being able to boot other Operating Systems - it appears that something in the HAOS image that I was using just isn't playing nicely with the Rpi. Yup, there are 0 changing variables between the installs and testing - same ethernet cable, same power supply, same SD card. I'll try imaging the SD card again later today with 12.1 and seeing what happens. Certainly open to any advice! Thank you again. |
Can you try also the latest 12.3? It should be already available in rpi-imager and offered by that by default, or you can download it from releases here. This release has updated kernel and firmware, so it can make some difference. |
I'll give it a shot and follow up soon, thanks! |
Hi, After the upgrade I had the following message : I've just tried to install 12.3 on a fresh SD card with RPI Imager and it still goes into emergency console . Edit : I've just done a fresh install with the 12.2 release and it works normally. I've just got to perform a config restore now... At first I thought I had a failing SD card that needed replacement, but this is def an OS version issue. |
Describe the issue you are experiencing
I have a Raspberry Pi 3B and a 3B+
Using both Raspberry Pi Imager and Balena Etcher:
The 3B can boot HAOS, Octoprint, Pi OS
The 3B+ can boot Pi OS, Octoprint, but will not boot HAOS
Powering up the 3B+, the red light remains solid, green light flashes a few times and stays off. No output to HDMI - simply a blank screen.
Copying over some of the firmware files (.elf, fixup, .dtb) from the Octoprint MicroSD card, I was able to get the rainbow screensaver and the green light remained blinking on and off at regular intervals, but nothing else.
I'm not a pro user but I suspect this has something to do with firmware for the 3B+
What operating system image do you use?
rpi3-64 (Raspberry Pi 3 64-bit OS)
What version of Home Assistant Operating System is installed?
12.1
Did you upgrade the Operating System.
Yes
Steps to reproduce the issue
1.Flash HAOS to MicroSD card
2.Insert card into RPi 3B+ slor
3.Attach power
