Hi @omer_faruk -  
Can you share what difficulties you’re running into when trying to get the CM4 running BlueOS? We’ve seen other users accomplish this OK…

Hello, @tony-white  
Thanks for reply me. I’d like to share my setup steps and we can solve problem easily. First of all, I fit jumper to disable eMMC boot and then im flashing my CM4 on Balena Etcher with usb cable connection.

Then, when flashing done I unplugged. After that, I open CM4 on my screen but i have only this.

If you have any idea I will be glad. Thanks for helping!  
I will try to flash the SD card and then try to install emmc via the SD card.

Hi @omer_faruk -  
Can you share what image / version of BlueOS you’re trying to flash the CM4 with?

Hello @tony-white

I am trying to this latest stable version 1.2.6 on this link. I tried couple things but still not succeed. Could the problem be caused by software incompatibility? There is no problem when tried to flash Rasbian OS.

Hi @omer_faruk -  
As I’ve seen you post on other forum threads of users who have had success with the CM4, I don’t think there is a software incompatibility - although the error message you encounter certainly implies that! Is it possible to try booting the device from a USB drive or SD card? Have you tried the beta image, 1.3 beta 8 currently?
