Hi misc@, I have a SanDisk 16GB Class 4 SD card which I can complete the install process on my Raspberry Pi 3 Model B v1.2 and another SanDisk Ultra 32GB Class 10 which can't complete the install. Tried the install on 6.8 and 6.9. The 32GB card seems to be fine (tested with Ubuntu install for a few days). Is that a known issue? Any workaround? In the past when the SD card reader didn't work I had a similar issue trying to install on a Kingston flash drive related to [1] according to [2]. Any relation?
