I was able to run raspberry pi OS on my raspberry pi 400 with SD card and also with SSD. But I wasn’t able to run 5.5 and 5.6 on either (32 and also 64 bit version). I have latest firmware and bootloader.
I can boot HASS version 4.16 from SD card.
My SSD should be supported (one guy on local forum has the same SSD and adapter - Patriot Burst 120gb + Axagon SuperSpeed 6G)
I’ve tried all I could think of and what others tried - both with SSD and SD card.
Connected SSD to USB2
I’ve edited line in config.txt - dtparam=sd_poll_once
Unplug SSD and install it on SD card (HASS 4.16 was on this SD card before)
I’ve let it load forever.
Connected it to internet by cable
I’ve set up my-network file for Wi-Fi on USB stick.
I’ve also tried external HDD VERBATIM Store ´n´ Go Portable SSD 120GB (I’ve originally thought it’s problem with the SSD so I’ve bought a new one with adapter that was tested)
Could the problem be due to difference between Raspberry pi 400 and Raspberry pi 4? I’m truly out of ideas here.
All my attempts are tied by this report. It’s almost identical for both SSD and SD card on version 5.5 and 5.6 (32 and 64 bit).
Edit:
I’ve noticed report when booting from SD card is slightly different. Here is the picture. Sorry for blurry quality but the report is there just for a split second once every 5 or so restarts.
There are apparently slight differences between Pi 4 and Pi 400. Could it be the root of the problem?

" Software support (probably only temporarily) - as the 400 is so new, a lot of Linux distros haven’t had time to catch up with the 400 hardware, so there are some weird issues, apparently due to slight firmware differences."
@metafieldor I can reproduce the issue here. It seems that U-Boot still fails to boot. I thought I have all the necessary patches in 5.6, but it seems that I missed something.
Created an issue:
Note: I don’t plan to backport support for CM4 or RPi400 to release 4. So it will be 5.7 or later which required.
Thank you! I was able to boot it with your dev build.
It may be an unrelated problem but I’m also unable to set the Wi-Fi configuration. I’ve tried both the USB method and SSD root folder method (CONFIG -> network -> my-network). Could it be related to RPi400?
