Raspberry Pi 4 and Hamvoip

 

With the issue being HAMVOIP, then is isn't the pi or anything else. You need to contact the author of HAMVOIP and/or open an issue on the HAMVOIP github

Might want to check to see if your external drive exceeds the specs of the USB port

I am using a inexpensive SSD drive and it works for me

Another error. Same setup.
?
 

That screen shot was on a Pi4 2GB. I did the EEPROM flash and still nothing. It just refuses to boot to M.2.
This is alother try at boot Hamvoip on a M.2 with a Pi4. This was just today. SAME Pi4 with EEPROM flash. How do I install raspi-config on Hamvoip Arch? Maybe I need to use that to tell the OS where to boot?
?
 

At the bottom. "start4.elf is not compatible"

It doesn't have the Pi5 compatible boot files. It would have start5.elf and the rest of the supporting files for it if it was

Which version of HamVoIP are you using?? Best I can tell, the HamVoIP project has stopped making updates in 2022 but per the website, it says:
--
May 21, 2022

Firmware image updated to version 1.7-01. This new firmware image has all packages updated and should now boot all supported Raspberry Pi hardware, including: Zero2W, 2B, 3B, 3B+, 3A+, CM3, CM4, Pi400 and 4B (rev 1.0 thru 1.5). Download the latest firmware HERE
--

Do note there is no mention of the Rpi5 on their website which is significantly different hardware.? One of the previous messages mentioned upgrading the RPi4 firmware by writing a special image to an SD card, booting on it, etc.? After you do that, depending on the revision of your Rpi4, I recommend you check the boot order supported and enabled on your Rpi4 firmware.

That is very odd... So the kernel and bootloader are correct if it boots from the SD card... I use Kingston's all the time with my Pi4's and 5's without issue, so that's definitely not it.
I would message the author of HAMVOIP and see if they have any ideas.?

One more thing. The Hamvoip image is GOOD. It boots just fine on the MMC. I have tried booting the SAME image on BOTH Pi4 AND Pi5 (with M.2 SSD), just to see what would occur. All I am trying to do is eliminate the MMC and use USB M.2 instead. I don't care if it's a Pi4 or Pi5.

I have a Kingston 256GB M.2 NVME SSD. It's a good drive and does work with other OS's on the Pi4 and Pi5. It seems the Pi5's don't care about boot order. I took one (Pi5) out of the box and it booted directly to the USB, but not the Hamvoip. It's a very strange issue indeed.
 

Didn't realize it was a Pi5. Pi5 requires a different kernel for the new SOC on the Pi5. Check with the author of HAMVOIP and see if they may have a Pi5 version.

Plain Jane Linux (Debian, Ubuntu) OS's will boot on the Pi4 (MMC boots just fine). If I use the SAME adapter on my Pi5 with ANYTHING other than my Hamvoip image, it will boot just fine. I think it has something to do with the way Hamvoip loads the bootstrap. Unknown.

 

You can skip the copying from the SD card by burning the image direct to the SSD.

Here are the steps you need to take to boot from a USB SSD on a pi4

 

They do have a bootloader image on the pi downloads page that you burn to an SD, power it on and then wait for the green light to start flashing (instructions with the download) and that upgrades the bootloader.? What NVMe SSD are you using?? Any errors about power?

Thank you for the reply. I am using a USB 3.0 M.2 NVME adapter. It plugs into the USB port on the Pi4. It will not boot. It see's the USB drive but, will not start the boot process. I can take a screen shot later and post the errors
I am getting. I have the Pi4 set to USB boot first, and flash card second (no flash card installed). Still nothing. Do I have to flash the EEPROM to get this to work? Thanks.

 

Thank you for the link. Am I supposed to do this (EEPROM Flash) with a DIFFERENT OS and THEN use the Hamvoip image after?

Have you successfully booted from the M.2 board with any other OS ?
