I just bought the v4 SA second hand and wanted to reinstall it. I have updated the core no problem. I downloaded the latest ApolloOS from this site and created an image on a sdcard using the image creator program on Windows with an sdcard. I plug the sdcard in to the v4 but it shows as an empty card (NoFS). In other words it doesn't recognise it when I boot up.

Another question. Can you only get coffinos on a cfcard? I can't find a legit download page, or are you expected to torrent it? I will want to dual boot so I don't really want to buy another cfcard.

Cheers

You have to use CF inside your vampire

Sorry about the duplicate post.

Likely the new SD driver can't 'see' the CF card. You may have to use RUFUS on PC to reformat with Fat32. The driver which handles FAT32 was updated not too long ago, and is a bit picky about the partition information location. It may not find it, unless it's in block 0. PC is less restrictive, so may see the volume just fine.

Coffin is distibuted free of charge via torrent. It will takes a little tim, as it's a large image (32Gb when expanded). The folks that charge $$ for the version on CF aren't selling you a license, they're charging for a 'service'. Basically, you're paying for a few minutes of their ttime to burn the image to a CF, plus the cost of the CF (no idea what brand(s) they use), plus shipping. If you have a bittorrent client, the torrent magnet link was active last I checked. I don't know how to attach the magnet link here.

Afaik they not even ship you a CF but only an SDcard.
You can not boot from an SDcard.
This means you need to copy the SDcard then yourself onto another CF.

Please not fall for them!
