Hi,

I have tried every method under the sun to get libreelec working on my pi 4 but it wont boot.

I have a pi 4 with a 64gb sd card and have used the folllowing guides to get started:

It would be helpful if you tell us exactly what happens when you write the LE image to the card and then try to boot with it.

I had no issues. Used the libreelec imager to flash sd, pop it in, turn it on.

Try a different microSD card or check your current card for errors.

Try a smaller card, 8 or 16GB.

I'm using a 128GB SD card on a RPi4 without issue.

Okay, over time i had the impression that larger SD cards got into trouble when used with the RPi 2/3.

I'm glad if this is no longer a problem with the RPi 4.
