Hi johnruk4670,

you might have typed in the password incorrect: The default keyboard layout is German. Maybe you have a ‘z’ or a ‘y’ letter in the password. The letters on the sticker ‘1’ and ‘l’ unfortunately look similar. So change the letters and try to login again.

Since RevPi is very famous globally now, will it be released with English keyboard layout with the next image distribution?
