New Raspberry Pi 3B+

[Muetzenfrosch]

Yesterday, on pi-day (3/14), the Raspberry Pi Foundation presented a new model, the 3B+.

Will this be supported by WTware?

Thanks!

[akatik]

Yes, as soon as we get this Pi.

[Muetzenfrosch]

Wonderful!

I ordered two of them and they are already on their way to me. When they reach me, I can send you one and you can keep it in exchange for one license. Deal?

[akatik]

Surely! Send me e-mail to support@wtware.com

[Muetzenfrosch]

Great, I will.

[mhertel]

Any updates on this?

[akatik]

Not so fast. Waiting for parcel.

[guest]

any idea when the new pi will be supported ?

[akatik]

As soon as we receive it. No Pi 3B+ yet.

I'm excited for the release. Before i read this thread, i tried it out. The ACT LED ist just blinking a few times, then stopping and starting again.

[akatik]

We've just received Pi 3B+. Hope soon it will be supported.

New version 5.8.14, 12.04.2018 supports Raspberry Pi 3B+

In a first test, it did'nt work. Installing WTware 5.8.14, formatting SD card, creating an image for network boot with WTware 5.8.14. The ACT LED is blinking.

Mine too. And I found no official raspberry documentation about this boot mode in 3B+. WTware image for network boot is "Special bootcode.bin-only boot mode" in raspberry docs: https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentati ... bootmodes/

Perhaps, this mode is not working anymore with 3B+?

My 3B+ boots well over network without SD.

Yes, i tried it and it works out of the box, even without SD card. No card needed anymore. Great!
