Is this new or does it occur on previous releases. Also which base board?

[D4rk4]

As I know RAK11300 is never working, the baseboard is RAK4631-mPCIe.R.1.0 (dummy core board with USB over mPCIe). I guess we need a dedicated variant for RAK11300.

P.S. RAK11300 not booting at all on RAK19003 base board =)

[caveman99]

RAK11300 is the RP2040+SX1262 core. The RP2040 is actually starting up?

[D4rk4]

@caveman99 yes it's starting, but halted on SX1262 initialization. Look like an SPI issue or wrong pins?

[caveman99]

Probably. the pico definition is for a Raspberry Pico with Waveshare SX1262 shield. This needs a new target for sure.

[caveman99]

please reopen if this is still an issue with current master - we pulled in an Radiolib init fix today.

[thebentern]

Still not initializing, sadly
