I ask because: https://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware/commits/master shows a 2021-Mar-23 firmware update described as: "firmware: board-info: Fix memsize on 3B+" and 13.0-RC2 and before had other, more general problems from pre-2021-Feb-25 firmware. A sufficiently recent snapshot build of main [14] is also a good test but it is more difficult to check if it is recent enough (compared to just referencing the 13.0-RC* text): # strings /boot/*/start4.elf | grep VC_BUILD_ID_ VC_BUILD_ID_USER: dom VC_BUILD_ID_TIME: 12:10:40 VC_BUILD_ID_VARIANT: start VC_BUILD_ID_TIME: Feb 25 2021 VC_BUILD_ID_BRANCH: bcm2711_2 VC_BUILD_ID_HOSTNAME: buildbot VC_BUILD_ID_PLATFORM: raspberrypi_linux VC_BUILD_ID_VERSION: 564e5f9b852b23a330b1764bcf0b2d022a20afd0 (clean) (But the /boot/... style path presumes the boot was successful. Other means of mounting the media would otherwise be involved.) I do not have access to any old-style-revision code 0010 or 0013 RPi*'s (so B+: with 512 MiByte RAM) or new-style-revision code a020d3 RPi*'s (so: B+ with 1 GiByte RAM). (These are the RPi3B's that have a "+" after the B: RPi3B+. "+" is not "and later" here.) === Mark Millard marklmi at yahoo.com ( dsl-only.net went away in early 2018-Mar)
