Rich,

For the image that won't boot, my guess is that it pre-dates the RPi4B14 
release channel, which was launched in about October, 2020.  Check the 
output of admin menu option #10.  The latest version should show these 
numbers:
                                                                            
---HamVoIP Firmware Version---
RPi2-3-4 Version 1.7-01 Allstar - May 15, 2022 - K4FXC

---HamVoIP AllStar Version---
Asterisk 1.4.23-pre.hamvoip-V1.7.1-04 app_rpt-0.327-01/22/2022

---Linux Kernel Version---
Linux version 5.4.75-1-ARCH (builduser at leming)
gcc version 10.2.0 (GCC)) #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Nov 9 16:58:39 UTC 2020


If the linux kernel version is older (e.g.: 4.19.65), you're running the 
previous release, which can be updated, but requires another step.

73, David K4FXC
