Raspberry Pi 3B+ Rainbow screen

[gowdy]

Hi,

Just trying to install osmc from scratch on my new B+ and I’m just getting the rainbow screen.
I’ve successfully installed and run raspbian using the same sd card and Pi, so I don’t believe it’s a hardware issue.

I notice the most recent image on the website and via the installer is 2018.02-1, should this be compatible with the B+ ?

Many thanks,
James

Ok, luckily I have a 3B knocking about.

Thanks for the quick reply!

No — you need the 2018.03 image or later.
