@openoms plz give it a review

[rootzoll]

First tests show problems ... needs more testing

[rootzoll]

OK first test now look OK .. will need to test more, but removing draft status.

[openoms]

LGTM, but will flash the image as well

I modify my config.txt to rotate the display and using NVMe gen3.

NVMe detection works. Rotation not.

config.txt after setup:

[rootzoll]

@neversleep404 I just releaaed rc7 that should contain all needed config.txt modifications .. is it working for you?

[rootzoll]

rotation during recovery is still wrong but should fix itself when recovery finishes.

[neversleep404]

@rootzoll is not. See the last screenshot above after the setup and after the final reboot.
Good news: R7 runing with a lower CPU load than R5 and R6 on my configuration (CL, CL Boss, mempool, Electrum).

[rootzoll]

@neversleep404 did you switched rotation on/off thru the SSHMAINMENU > SETTINGS ? If you just edited the config.txt manually before that cannot be remembered on recovery - rotation needs to be set thru /mnt/hdd/raspiblitz.confusing lcdrotateparameter (where 1 is default).

[neversleep404]

Ssh Menue Rotation is on and I set it manually in the config.txt.
In all builds until RC6 it works.

Ok I am testing here with my RaspiBlitz. I go into the SSHMAINMENU > SETTINGS and I turn the Rotation OFF which results after a reboot in the LCD being rotated ... I know, its a bit confusing. By default rotation is ON - which is the normal. So by turning Rotaion OFF I set the RaspiBlitz into the non-default Rotation. And when I look now into cat /mnt/hdd/raspiblitz.conf I can see that is lcdrotate=0 as it should be now ... I did no manual change of config.txt, etc.

Now I use a v1.11.0rc7 fatpack image to recover ... and once I am completly thru with recovery, the screen is again in non-default rotation as it should be with my changed settings. @neversleep404 So everything works as it should - I cannot reproduce your problem.

[neversleep404]

Ok. I used now my testing PI 5. insert only one line before the recovery in the config.txt: dtparam=pciex1_gen=3 and use a v1.11.0rc7 lean image to recover.
After the recovery and final reboot I go into the SSHMAINMENU > SETTINGS and I turn the Rotation OFF and reboot, which did not change the LCD rotation after after a reboot

And when I look now into cat /mnt/hdd/raspiblitz.conf I can see that is lcdrotate=0.

the config file looks fine, but nothing changed.

I doubled now the last line in the config.txt
dtoverlay=waveshare35a:rotate=270
dtoverlay=waveshare35a:rotate=270

reboot and nothing changed.

I go into the SSHMAINMENU > SETTINGS and I turn the Rotation ON

reboot. LCD did not changed.

and in the config.txt:

Now I'm confused because the change in the config.txt 'rotate=270' normally rotated the screen. But there is now no change with '90' and '270'. On my other Pi 5 'rotate=270' worked when I changed it after the final reboot.
The only difference compared to my other Pi 5 was that the recovery was done without the LCD because the installation always failed without an additional external cooling fan, as the NVMe was no longer recognized. Likely an overheating issue.
But in all the documented steps mentioned above, the LCD was mounted, and I did not remove it.

[neversleep404]

I could install it now as new "Raspiblitz" and see what happened then?

[rootzoll]

@neversleep404 yeah it could be that some old changes somehow make troubles. Best to fresh setup your Testpi5 and just reuse the blockchain and check then again if the rc7 respects the LCD rotation.

[neversleep404]

@rootzoll ok. You used the fatpack. I'll use the lean image.

[neversleep404]

@rootzoll: FRESH setup with CL with config.txt: dtparam=pciex1_gen=3.

Setting:

Raspi try to reboot, but screen is white and nothing happens. SSH did not work. SD-Card light is on, no blinking. System hangs.

PowerOff and PowerOn. Reboot starts. LCD has not rotated. Config.txt looks good.

I'll try it later with the fatpack. Then we see if the Problem is my HW, or the Package.

[neversleep404]

@rootzoll: Fatpack works as it should work. The Problem is only in the lean Image.
LCD rotates after the SSHMAINMENU > SETTINGS and turning the Rotation OFF (and the automatic reboot)

[rootzoll]

@neversleep404 I just tested with minimal image rc7 and on both RaspberryPi 4 & 5 that have both rotation turned off (non-default) its as the old setting before the recovery.

So I think for the final v1.11.0 release we are good. If you can stull reproduce after final release please open a seperate issue for it and we will further investigate.

HW:
Geekworm X1001 PCIe to M.2 NVMe
WD_BLACK SN770 NVMe SSD 2 TB
ELEGOO Display 3.5" Zoll TFT LCD

SW: minimal image RC7 from your RaspiBlitz RPi5 Testing link: https://docs.raspiblitz.org/docs/setup/software-setup/download#downloading-the-software

unmodified config.txt

What happened: Insert the fresh burned SD-Card. Power on. Fan is loud. Screen stays white. SSH did also not work.
Manual Power off. Manual Power on. Fan is loud. nothing happens. After a few minutes(?) Fan goes out, fan goes on. Nothing happens. A few minutes later fan goes out, fan goes on. SSH works, screen is white:

I retesting it now with the fat and a new loaded lean image. Please Wait.

[neversleep404]

Second try with the new loaded lean Image:
Fan goes on and off, fan goes on. SSH works, screen is white:

Not good. I have a full synced Blockchain on the NVMe.

Next try, fat Image...

What happened: Insert the fresh burned SD-Card. Power on. Fan is loud. Screen stays white. SSH did also not work.
Manual Power off. Manual Power on. Fan is loud. system boots. Screen is on.

[neversleep404]

Now. I copied the config.txt from the fat image to the lean image. And insert
dtparam=pciex1_gen=3

display is on, setup process runs. NVMe and Blockchain is recognized

looking good. Installation runs.
