Hi Guys

trying to flash my Raspberry4b like in the instructions but i cant connect to it for the config bacause there is no Hotspot to connect to in the wifi list. Noticed the that internet connection is required on first run but how? the Pi is empty, how should it connect without SW on it? any ideas where I am wrong, where the misunderstandig is? Thanks πŸ™‚

Did you add the firmware on the sd card and then insert it in the PI? Check if it is 64bit or 32 bit version. And when you insert it it could take quite a while for it to appear "RatOS" Hotspot in your WiFi settings

We deleted the 64-bit release because it sucks nobody should run it. It serves no purpose anyway. The 4gb 32-bit limit is per process. It makes no difference for our purposes anyway. Good you solved it πŸ™‚
