I just wanted to follow up with the group to say that I was able to get the 2015-05-05 Raspberry PI 2 image to work. I believe the problem was my SD card. The card checks out totally normally under Windows, but when you load the image onto it and then boot it, it panics right after trying to re-size the partition on the first book. On subsequent boots, I have to manually specify the boot device (it wants to boot off of mmscd0s2 but needs to boot off mmscd0s2a) and then I am not able to re-size the root partition anymore and I get occasional panics under heavy disk I/O. I switched to a different card and have had no problems so far. As an aside: does anyone have any recommendations for SD cards that are faster/better than others? The card that didn't work for me was a SanDisk 32GB Ultra, and the one that's working now is a SanDisk 16GB Pixtor. It's not terrible, but it's a bit slow and I was wondering if something else would be faster. Any recommendations at all are appreciated. Thanks! -- Tim Gustafson tjg@tgustafson.com
