I flashed a 16GB SD card with Mender-integrated Raspberry Pi OS. I am using a Raspberry Pi B+. But while booting, a rainbow screen appears and would not continue further.

I have tried flashing the OS image from BalenaEtcher and Raspberry Pi Imager tools. Both result the same. Can anybody help me?

Which image exactly are you trying to flash? Did you download out from our resource or did you build it your self?

> I am using a Raspberry Pi B+

We only have images for Raspberry Pi 3 & 4.

Hi,

I downloaded the image from [here](https://docs.mender.io/hosted/get-started/preparation/prepare-a-raspberry-pi-device). Its the same image that you linked.

That usually means there is some issue at the bootloader level. Can you use a [serial adapter](https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruits-raspberry-pi-lesson-5-using-a-console-cable/enabling-serial-console) and share a console log?

In my case it was dtoverlay=disable-bt in the boot config file causing this issue.
