I am having problems with running MotionEyeOS on a RP Zero W. The LED blinks twice only, and the video stops at the rainbow.

Things I have done:
1. I did everything on the Wifi Preconfiguration https://github.com/ccrisan/motioneyeos/wiki/Wifi-Preconfiguration page to the letter



SSID and PSK are masked...

2. Used three different Zero Ws
3. Used three different SD cards
4. Used both Etcher and Win32DiskImager with the latest MotionEyeOS

I have RP3s with MotionEyeOS, but for some reason it won't boot on any Zero Ws.

I have taken the SD card from the non-booting Zero and put it in an RP3 and it worked fine. I took a known good card with MotionEyeOS from an RP3 and put it in the Zero but no boot.

All Zeros work fine with Stretch...

It must be a problem with wpa_supplicant.conf, but I can't see it...

Help! :-)

I got it to work - I used motioneyeos-raspberrypi-20180224.img.gz...not motioneyeos-raspberrypi3-20180401.img.xz

I could not see it from Windows 7 yet, so I pulled the sd out and reinserted it, then copied wpa_supplicant.conf to the root directory.
