Sorry I'm tired, I don't see any firmware flashing. I assume that happened? Been a long day, sorry if I missed it.

This is a good thread. If I get to go down this route, Im just going to follow this for the setup... unless it all goes south later on. :lol: :hide:

@exxos I have to ask... Will you be making any fully built up PiStorms for the store?

It already went south about page 1. This is attempt 3 now.

The boards are in the store but only the SMT is assembled.

So thats more chance you will find the solution and be able to tell us the pitfalls.

Yes I saw you mention that. I was thinking more 'fully' populated for the non soldering types like me. :lol:

Ah well, if it runs for more than 30 seconds before I break it, then that's a good start. Otherwise we will have to pester @Badwolf to fix it as its all software nonsense i know nothing about.

Ah yeah , I don't know how I'm soldering mine up yet :lol: but I can probably do the odd one with the headers on.

Well, no pressure or anything. If one does become 'spare' at some point, let me know. ;)

Hoping to order one very soon too - might have to use a Pi 3B+ to start with (cat has had a few trips to the vet recently, so funds are more scarce than usual :() and get a Pi 4 when I can...
