![]() This is the problem then! However, i've read a number of articles where people are doing a headless installation, i.e. So it sounds like you had a properly imaged card.Īh ha!!! 'ext4 Linux filesystem that cannot be seen by Mac or Windows,'. The default Raspbian image has a small FAT32 /boot partition that can be read on a Windows or Mac system, and a larger ext4 Linux filesystem that cannot be seen by Mac or Windows, and that is where all the "folders" are. Clearly i'm doing something very silly but i'm not sure what. However, if I have understood well then this should result in a directory structure being created that is similar (probably the same) as a Linux/Unix. I've read through the forum posts about formatting my SD card with FAT32 and followed the instructions to install Raspbian on it using my Mac. Pengjn wrote:Day 1 noob here so please bear with me. I must be missing something blindingly obvious here! The SD I'm using is from thepihut and came with NOOBS pre-installed so I'm confident that it is a compatible card. The files I see in there are:ĬOPYING.linux bcm2710-rpi-cm3.dtb issue.txtīcm2708-rpi-b-plus.dtb config.txt overlaysīcm2708-rpi-cm.dtb fixup_cd.dat start_cd.elfīcm2709-rpi-2-b.dtb fixup_db.dat start_db.elfīcm2710-rpi-3-b.dtb fixup_x.dat start_x.elf when I do a df -h the only SD card volume i see is '/Volumes/boot' but not the system directory structure. ![]() This resulted in what I've seen before, i.e. Therefore I followed the second option, 'Download and image Raspbian directly'. my keyboard doesn't play with my Pi Zero so I'm trying to do a headless install on my Mac, configure the Pi's WiFi adapter on my Mac and then I'll be able to access my Pi via SSH. I get to this point 'When this process has finished, safely remove the SD card and insert it into your Raspberry Pi.' in the NOOBS process and I hit the brick wall that I originally hit, i.e. Thank you very much - I'll give it a go and let you know the result! ![]() If you followed instructions and the SD card is valid and greater than 4G and class 4, the RPi should start in Raspbian Pixel. You can then un-mount (eject) the SD card and place it in your RPi and boot. You should get two partitions on your SD card: the first and smaller, is the FAT32 boot partition and the larger is an EXT4 partition containing the rootfs. When you finally get Noobs booted, pay attention to the panel at the bottom of the screen that lets you choose the correct language and then install Raspbian from the menu. That will get you the Noobs archive file and you should follow the instructions for the Mac which suggests using "The Unarchiver" to open up the.
