  • Hello,


    I have a Octagon SF8 HD. Bought in in Dec 2013, used it for some days, but it "died" then after doing system updater.


    That means that I was using the debian builtin upgrade script too upgrade. The system was afterwards working until I rebooted it.
    So i gues, it did weather a kernel update and forgot to update the bootloader or something like that.


    So now the soccer WM is in the row and i must try to get it running again


    What I tried so far, is to reflash the image and the bootloader.


    But without success. The system does not boot from USB at all. It just starts, the power button gets "pink" fora second or to and then
    the boot logo comes up (Octagon), the REC LED is red, the Power button is not illuminated and the display shows "boot".


    What can I try to get it running?


    Thank you in advance.


    Michael

  • Ok, now i tried with at least 8 different USB sticks and finally the last one really worked!


    It was a Kingston 8 GB. (small, red plastic, silver handle, just in case someone needs).


    Great!


    Which one is the best image distribution for an SF8 HD?
