RPIBoot Download Link not working

Philipp · Post by **Philipp** » 29 Jul 2020, 15:48

Hello Gents,

I am working with an Revolution PI core 3 for some time now and I am really happy with it.
As I have changed my working computer I wanted to redownload the needed software for flashing images on Rev Pi's yesterday.

The Download Link youre providing for the RPIBoot in your instructions (https://revolution.kunbus.de/tutorials/ ... ufspielen/) doesn't work anymore.

As I am unable to work without the ability off flashing the PI's I am asking for a solution to that.
Perhabst you could provide me the installation file on another way!?

Thanks in advance,

Hi Phillip, sorry for the broken link, we'll update our online documentation here. Try it with this link:
https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentati ... lashing.md
Just search for "rpiboot"

Hi Dirk,
thank you for you fast answer but actualy I meant the download Link to the Windows installer on https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentati ... lashing.md

: RPI Windows installer.PNG (48.42 KiB) Viewed 11093 times

Fo some reason the download "can't be accomplished" and the RPI_setup.exe can't be executet.

At first I thought it might be our company firewall that interrupts the download (our IT changed some security settings). But when trying it with mi personal computer in my private network I still had to start the download 4 times to get the download accomplished and a working .exe. But at least I got it working.

But now I have other issues when trying to flash a new image on the PI. For some reason I go the error message: "Fehler beim Versuch, Daten zu schreiben. Fehler 5: Zugriff verweigert".

Best regards,

Philipp

I've spotted the same issue. Couldn't find a link to download "Rpiboot.exe". The manual on
https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentati ... odule.html
just explains how to install it, but a link is missing. The search engine does not give any other results than this documentation.

I would have expected to get all required basic tools von revolutionpi.com or at least get a list with donwload links here?!

Best Regards,

Hi Thorsten,

the link is located in the section "Setting up the CMIO board" -> "Windows Installer" on the page you linked. It links to the following download: https://github.com/raspberrypi/usbboot/ ... _setup.exe

Thanks, I found it in the meantime. But anyway, a list of links to useful tools might be a good idea?!

Best regards,
