Andrew,
Yes, I meant Andy, got confused but thank you to you too.
I hope Andy will look at some of comments on how we might improve Pi-Star, one bug is absolute that I mentioned regarding showing the WiFi name on the configuration status section.

1) I *do* get video out of mine, I'll re-check but I don't recall having any issues with this on any Raspberry Pi hardware.n3gwg wrote: ↑Sun Feb 25, 2024 8:36 pm 1) No video during boot process or after booting up on video display connected to Pi Zero WH v2
2) Pi-Star AP was inaccessible initially
3) Using full capacity of the MicroSD Card
4) I had some trouble getting the ZUMspot to hear my radio.
5) Supported boards - Pi Zero WH v1 is 32 bit only though Pi Zero WH v2 is 64 bit
6) I recently purchased a DV Mega USB stick, does Pi-Star support that device?
2) JP should give you more available channels than any other region (this is why its the out of box default) and the AP always starts on 2.4GHz / CH6 (if I remember right).
3) Already fixed, I need to re-spin the download image.
4) New firmware may be required indeed, but it's already on the Pi and ready to be deployed.
5) Yes, 32/64bit boards are supported and will remain so.
6) depends on what stick it is, transcode only, then no, if it has RF, I don't see why not.
Re: New releases
n3gwg I feel your pain... I too have found him to be arrogant, and abrasive.... that being said, you can just do what i did... fork his code, and implement the bug fixes you addressed yourself.... Its on him if he's too full of himself to accept bugfixes to the upstream branch. I really don't care if he does or not... if i fix a bug on my system, it works for me.
Re: New releases
Hi Everyone.
Same issues I had and no D-Star repeater support in their version. I have several devices that love Pi-Star and now running an Odroid XU-4 version for months now without a single problem on my trusty DVAP dongles. Stick with what works best, tried and true for legacy devices that are often better than the new sound card based hardware. Plenty of users have had a bad experience as posted earlier, plenty in New Zealand I have spoken to. So I've been on D-Star since 2011 and trustee for an Icom stack so being told where to go with my technical questions and bug assistance was not expected. No problem with Pi-Star support and user feedback. They listen and make any fixes with a friendly appreciated response. 73 and good DV. John ZL2TWS

Just downloaded 4.2.1 iso, and put that onto SD card.
I have an error while upgrade my RPi0 with 4.2.1.
It shows:
any thoughts ?

Re: New releases
You should use sudo <commands> even though you have rw mode on the disk.
