RaspiBlitz slow boot and acts weird after boot #898
Comments
Are you using a shim fan? Try removing it! Very much looks like the random issues documented in this thead: #796 For now don`t worry about the RPi getting hot without the fan, it will slow down instead of getting damaged. Use and open case and possibly a USB fan or else. We are looking for the ideal solution. Also recently ordered another shim-fan to see if it is just (quite common) sporadic issue or a design problem. |
Yes I'm using a shim fan, indeed. I checked the thread you mentioned and it looks like a workout would be to uninstall Plymouth? P.S. I bought a pre-assembled node. How do I remove the shim fan after opening the case? |
As you can see from my comments #796 (comment) I had further problems after removing plymouth got me through the boot process. To remove plymouth run: |
What issues did you experience after removing plymouth? After uninstalling plymouth and installing FanShim drivers I didn't experience any issues so far. |
See this comment #796 (comment) |
Only shutdown and reboot issues? I have shut down my node from the RaspiBlitz menu succesfully a few times. |
Well you are right, having issues with shuthdown now.
But node is not shutting down (~ 5 mins passed already). |
Suboptimal but best way to pull the plug is to disconnect the network cable first. Wait for the HDD led to stop blinking. Pull the power only then.

I have setup three times this RaspBerry PI 4 (4GB ram + 1 TB SSD + 32 GB Micro-SD) with latest version of RaspiBlitz (raspiblitz-v1.3-2019-09-05.img.gz).
Setup is always fast, but after initialization and reboot it takes very long before I can log in SSH. Even after succesfull boot I sometime gets error like "bitcoind is not running" while some other times I can see main menu (and node is sync'd: bitcoin v0.18.1 mainnet Sync OK 100.00%).
The LCD screen also acts weird. I dont see the boot logo and after long time even if node is running correctly (I can see the status in SSH as said before) this is what I get on the screen.
I think the culprit is in systemd, maybe some services are not booting up correctly.
I already tried clearing HDD (except blockchain) and re-flash SD card with RaspiBlitz several times. I always end up having this issue.
In /var/log/boot.log I see these errors:
So I tried:
XXdebugLogs.sh sometime could check systemd status, sometime could not (without reboot, it seems being an on-and-off issue). When it works this is the output (as you can see all services are actually running fine).
And sometimes it cannot:
