Wierd Dietpi boot/non-boot issue

[evilbunny]

Evilbunny,

I used the version of Dietpi that the forked Etcher offers:

When you select Dietpi from the Etcher menu (and not select a specific download) this is the version that you get.

This explains it!  Maybe the Etcher should only pull the most recent version of the images?

Thanks for the quick reply.

Regards,
Mike

I don't know why it's pulling that version, because the config file points to the link I posted above. v156.

Bunny,

I'm using an old (ancient) Toshiba TV/monitor.   I don't think it's 1080.  I think it's 720.  Given that Dietpi is running ncurses (bash scripts) I would think that the default video config would be a failsafe one.  I'm running the Rock64 headless so after the initial config, I'm only using SSH.

So long as it works is the main thing.

DietPi_v145_Rock64-arm64-(Stretch).img.xz

I just installed the installer and the only way v145 shows up is if you select the pine64 board, if you select the rock64 board it shows v156
