Good morning everyone, I am an Italian user and I installed Venus OS 3.50 on a Raspberry pi 4 with a microsd card and everything works but I wanted to use a USB pendrive for booting and despite having set the boot sequence from USB the program does not start, thanks
Dear Vinicio,
as far as I know you cannot boot venusOS via usb. (My first sd-card died after plus/minus 500 days beginning of October 2024)
If you find a solution please let us know.
Have fun
Marc
edit: typos
Thanks Marc, so you confirm that it is not possible to boot Venus OS from USB on Raspberry pi 4, I thought I was doing something wrong, bye
It can be done, using this solution:

Be aware, some of the “quotes” should be replaced, as the author (or the forum software) put the backtick sign and not quotes.
The second aware: updates does not work anymore. You should make these steps again and again for each update. And if you don’t make an backup of the data on your ssd, these will be lost, because you need to format ssd each time.
I’m working on a solution on this problem, but till now, I have already 3 days of pain in the a$$ with this approach, as I cannot find a good way to replace only the boot and root partitions.
Cheers
