Problem: Pi won't boot with the OS.

Details: I Downloaded the image and unziped using 7-zip. I then installed the image using raspberry Pi imager v1.7.5. When plug in power, after the SD card is already in, and the pi does not boot. It instead display's the error (picture 1). Please note this is my first rasberry pi project so any help given will need the "extra steps" so I can fiqure out what the help even means. Any youtube videos on this problem would be estatic. Please note, I saw a post about this from 2022, but I have no idea how to implement the given advice to fix the issue.

I tried headless with a Raspberry Pi 3 & 4, a few times (connected with ethernet-cable). After a blinking green light (maybe 3 times) I couldn't see any activity and I got no IP-address... I think the image doesn't work anymore.

It's a known issue, and depends on which version of the bootloader is installed in the Pr4. It does not affect The Pi3 and Pi4. versions are different. You need to use the correct image for the device. There are several threads on which bootloaders are tested with which versions of the Pi4 (2GB, vs 4GB, vs 8GB) you are using.

Where exactly can we find those versions? I only know of the page with different images for different boards, not for different Raspberry Pi's.

For all the boards, I recommend dev20201026 version

AH! I didn't see "Show all 16 assets" :-) I also hadn't seen the assets voor 20201026 that way...

Thank you!

any ideas?

The current repository hasn't been updated since April of last year. Is this project still undergoing development?

What is the result of

vcgencmd bootloader_version

when running a raspberrypios like buster lite or legacy lite?
