Failed Install to SD card

Help and Support Raspberry Pi

I am using windows 10 to attempt to install OSMC to an SD card. I intend to use on rasberry pi. The options I select are English > Rasberry Pi > version 2015.09-1 > on SD card> wireless connection> WPA>WPA2>My SSID>My Password>Select Proper SD drive> accept license> Then it asks me to re-download image file. If I pick yes I get the error “Download Failed! Please Check your network connection.” If I pick no it asks me do I want to extract again. If I pick yes it says “An error occured extracting the archieve! Please consult the logfile.” If I pick no it jumps to congratulations your ready for show time. But nothing is on the sd drive.

I deleted and reinstalled the installer twice. I have ran thru all the options numerous times. Same result.

Are you running as administrator?

3

Yes

4

Look in C:\users<youtusername> for a file named log.txt and post its contents. Also delete any files beginning with osmc from that directory and then try running the installer again

5

Also check the write protect switch is not accidentally set

I cleared the log to get a fresh one. This is redownloading the image file.

This is without redownloading the image file. Clicking yes to extract.

use 8-1
9-1 hasn’t been released yet.

Wow I have been wasting my time. Thanks 8-1 took off. Why is 9 an option if its not available?

10

It will be available soon.

September update (9-1) is available. I’d advise you download the instead of the August release. It should download fine now.

I tried 9-1 for the last hour. Maybe the host server is down. But 8-1 took off fine.

If the server was down, then the links would not load at all.

Your log shows you are trying to download the Raspberry Pi 1 version. If you try that in the installer now, I assure you that it will work :smile:

If you do use the August image, be sure to perform a full upgrade after booting
