Good; it's not much, but every wall put in their way helps.

Need more ram for cranking 90s in Fortnight during traffic jams?

No, just trying to play FM radio... modern tech is awesome :/

The space-time around your triangle has a bend in it

Because this method has worked just fine for years. It's also how I restore my backups so it's a familiar process.

Configuration was never the issue; I have no problem setting it up manually and switching it to being headless when I'm ready for that.

The display not working is a symptom; the entire device was shutting down, not just refusing to output video unfortunately.

Turned out to be a faulty sd card. New one is now working just fine.

Seems it was a bad card.

Tried a different one and all is well again.

Here's a couple frames from a video I took. More lines than I thought, but I don't see anything noteworthy :/

Start of boot:

  1. didn't look like anything unusual, but I'll try and grab a photo before it disappears from screen. Waiting on 'apt upgrade' rn.

  2. the devices MAC has a fixed DHCP lease. The IP becomes and remains unreachable as soon as I enter 'sudo reboot'.

  3. this is a previously known to be good card (it had a working OS on it prior to todays messing around), but I'll try another for good measure.

No, just an hdmi cable directly between the pi+monitor.

Just downloaded the .img.xz, extracted the .img with 7zip, flashed to a card with win32diskimager.
