Armbian not booting

[Robert Hartles]

Hi there,

I've recently flashed armbian on my sd card for my odroid c4. At some point I may have restarted it and it is no longer booting. When I plug in the odroid it is stuck on the boot screen with the spinning symbol. I used the latest desktop version armbian jammy when setting up. 

 

I am unable to flash over this on the sd card and it is not able to be formatted by windows. I tried diskpart etc but nothing seems to be working.

 

Can anyone help me out?

 

Thanks

Try use this SD card formatting software.

@Myron I've gave that a go with quick format and it does not work

Could the SD card be faulty?  Next logical question to ask.

Also try different sdcard. Different size/model/class. Some boards are known to be picky about those

@Myron Honestly it probably is the sd card, which is kind of annoying since I've only had it for about a month. It did crash once or twice before this happened. I'll pick up a new one at some point

 

Thanks for the help
