Raspberry pi 5 support for RAK5146

I am trying to use a RAK5146 with RPi 5. The initial install was via “rak_common_for_gateway” and using the updated start.sh and reset scripts. Using a RAK 2287 seems to work properly on the same board, however the RAK5146 always fails to start. I have tried two different modules. But going back to 2287, always seem to work. I get a version back of 0.0 that seems to me like an SPI communications error, but I am afraid I am lost at the moment. Has anyone used this combination? Any suggestions or guidance would be greatly appreciated.
