Nerves on Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W does not boot
Shame to get hung up on the most basic of steps here but I am struggling to find the solution last few nights
Started off with
$ export MIX_TARGET=rpi0
$ mix deps.get
$ mix firmware
$ mix burn
Which all complete without error but the Pi does not boot up. That lead me to this thread
Where @fhunleth suggested rpi3a
But trying export MIX_TARGET=rpi3a results in same hang with the green LED goes off once then solid green
Then tried the rpi0_2 option also in the same reply
And that fails with a different LED output where it flashes once and then goes DED
I think that is a “card read error” but I do not think it can be that as I did manage to get the Pi to boot with Raspberry Pi OS and on two separate SD cards
So I am not sure if I am still burning wrong MIX_TARGET or missing some simple step or what
I also tried these but they just hung with solid green LED also

Any suggestions would be great
Thanks

What have you tried after seeing the green LED? I think there might be some misconception here:
- For this target, HDMI is disabled by default. You will most likely not get any output from there
- These do not follow the LED patterns defined by Raspian OS. A solid green is the expected output on startup
- You should be able to ping
nerves.localor see that the device is connected over network if you are using the middle USB port of the rpi0 or USB A port of rpi3a
Can you take a look over Connecting to a Nerves target and try some of the suggestions there to see if maybe the device is actually working properly?
Or if needed, you can configure WiFi when burning the circuits quickstart image to an SD card. You could try that as well and see if the new device joins your network
