Reporting: Moitessier 2 HAT installation
#1
Installed Basic OpenPlotter Moitessier HAT for RPI 4 (2020-01-13 OpenPlotter-Moitessier-HAT-v2.0-pre-release-NOOBS) on a brand new RPI4 4GB. No HAT attached during the installation. Once done, System check justly reported that Moitessier was not attached (I2C and SPI were OK). Attached the Moitessier 2 HAT, System check still reports not enabled. HAT app was saying that the installed package wasn't supported (see Fig_1). HAT app Drivers tab showed that the current kernel version was a few versions upward of the driver, but the appropriate package could not be selected on the Available packages panel (See Fig_2). I had to press Download to select and manually download the latest driver. Installation was only a matter of double clicking it from the download folder. Afterwards, HAT app Drivers tab was reporting that the new version was installed (see Fig_3) and OP System check was reporting that the HAT was attached (see Fig_4).
 
All in all, quite smooth. Kudos to OP minds. Just curious as to why the appropriate package was not selectable from the drop-down menu in the Available packages panel of the HAT app's Drivers tab. Was it because I made the initial install without the HAT?
