So, just a light post, I upgraded my Pi4 last night and found the Linux firmware breaks a 32bit install.
I’ve been meaning to change to 64bit for months, but as it’s my DMZ box for torrents, radicale, etc, then it’s just finding the right time to convert an adhoc setup into my ansible scripts.
Luckily I had a SD backup from September to get it running again
So, what have you broken over the holidays?
I rebooted a machine that had an Nvidia driver crash. It didn’t finish the reboot, but it did seem to stop sshd so I can’t get in until I get home and have physical access. I had a ping running so I could watch, it never dropped. 🫠
Lesson here: put your experimental boxes on a WiFi plug and set them to boot on AC restoration.
I hate it that systemd is so quick to shut down sshd when shutting down the system. it does that in the very first “round”, while it could really just keep it running till the end…
Even my proxmox web interface lasts deeper into a reboot than sshd. It boots you immediately while you can watch the vms shut down for the next 3 minutes in the browser.
or something like nanokvm
It’s been a year, are these issues fixed?
