Perhaps follow what I did for armv7 CUbies at:

http://cdn.opensxce.org/redsleeve/el6/cubieboard2/

But instead of the Fedora 19 kernel, look at the work being posted on the Fedora-arm list to get Fedora 21 working on the Raspberry Pi 2. Take that kernel, then follow what I did and you could well be on your way. Though the Fedora 22 beta might even be a better uboot and kernel to work with.

Hi Maulvi,

the colourful boot-up screen is (at least at model B(+)) a sign that the device did not understand the kernel. looking at the official raspi github I see that model 2 support has been added 12 days ago (https://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware/commits/master)

The kernel on that image is not that new, so I'm not really surprised that it doesn't work.

from here I can see two courses of action:
1) download the latest kernel (https://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware/archive/master.zip) and copy the relevant parts (most stuff under /boot and /modules) to your SD and see if that boots. 2) wait a bit :). My Pi model 2 is due to arrive early next week. Work permitting I will probably update the image with the new kernel somewhere in the coming 2 two weeks.

The new kernel is quite a bit newer. It went from a 3.12.x to 3.18.x I don't yet know the impact of that on the rest of the system. I also read a bit about "device tree overlays" and some people were a bit confused about that. Point being that I'd like your input if you manage to get the new kernel working.

Hello

I got the Raspberry Pi 2 and after dd-flashing the 'raspi-v2-redsleeve-cli-0.6.img.xz' image successfully to a MicroSD card, the device stucks at the colourfu boot-up screen.

The Red LED was on, the Green LED was also on but for a brief second or so before switching off and remain so.

Any help is very much appreciate.


Regards

Maulvi

    Hi All,

    Today I got my Raspberry model B+. It did not directly play nice with
    the 0.5 image, no video out. I remembered I saw something
    regarding this
    on the raspberry firmware git commits, so I tried a new kernel:
    that worked!

    I found this a good reason for a new image:
    raspi-v2-redsleeve-cli-0.6.img.xz

    which can of course be downloaded from here:

    Enjoy,

    Jacco
