Hi Greg, I checked the OSX error log which showed an error reported by fsck_msdos before trying to mount the .img file. Running this in a terminal window gives the following error:
Macintosh:~ steve$ fsck_msdos /Users/steve/Desktop/piCorePlayer1.21_RPI2.img ** /Users/steve/Desktop/piCorePlayer1.21_RPI2.img Invalid BS_jmpBoot in boot block: fab800 After searching online for this error, I came across the testdisk utility. This reports: TestDisk 7.0, Data Recovery Utility, April 2015 Christophe GRENIER <[email protected]> http://www.cgsecurity.org Disk /Users/steve/Desktop/piCorePlayer1.21_RPI2.img - 68 MB / 65 MiB - CHS 9 255 Current partition structure: Partition Start End Size in sectors Warning: number of heads/cylinder mismatches 4 (FAT) != 255 (HD) Warning: number of sectors per track mismatches 16 (FAT) != 63 (HD) 1 P FAT32 LBA 0 32 33 2 172 42 40960 [piCore] Warning: Bad starting cylinder (CHS and LBA don't match) 2 P Linux 2 172 43 8 38 30 87936 Warning: Bad starting cylinder (CHS and LBA don't match) No partition is bootable I've got no idea what this means but I hope it is helpful. I've tried three different cards from 4GB, 8GB and 32GB and got the same error on each. I'm using Apple-Pi Baker to copy the img file onto a Micro-SD card. Regards, Steve. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Steve Agnew's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=840 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97803 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
