What happened?

What happens

If an image is downloaded incorrectly (or in this case if my custom manifest creation script has a bug), then the imager gives an error pop up as expected.

However if you then click "continue" it reports the write is complete:

As I know that my manifest is at fault I did try the image. And nothing booted. Also the image is no longer recognised in the system any more.

What I'd expect

  • The final screen to say that the write failed
  • Reformat the SD card to either ext4 or fat32 so my system recognises it as storage.
