Hi,

Just purchased the idpi SD card, which i installed on my RPI 3b+. After first installation, i update to latest version, but upon rebooting the device got stuck with following line (see file attached) :

Unmount RPC Pipe File System

I hard rebooted and everytime I shut down, no matter the method, I hit the same wall.
Anyone can help me?

What mode are you in (text or gui)?
Is there a monitor attached?
Did you try running the update function (12) ?

I did. Actually I was trying to reboot after updating.

I have this issue I try to shut down / rebooot. Happening with both RPi 3b+ and  RPi 4.

Any ideas?

If it still boots OK, after booting switch to text mode and when it comes back up try the update function again.
Do you have any attached devices? USB DAC, External drive, etc??

Did you try booting with that disconnected?
There might be a power issue.

Thank you Bob. I just tried. So far the IdPi didn't turn off yet (I've been waiting for a few minutes). Maybe it takes a long time for it to shut down?

EDIT: I just checked (we're 1/2h later) and it did turn off. I don't know how long it took exactly. Is there a log where I could check that?
I'll do another try with the USB plugged, now.

The Raspberry Pi can't actually do a total power off.
When it reaches shutdown however it will clear the screen.
It does sound like you might have a power problem.
Is your external drive powered through the Pi or separately?
What is the filesystem format on your external drive? (most external drives made for PC's are fat32 unless you reformatted it).

Hi Bob,

The HDD is powered independently, and I seem to recall it's NTFS - but I'll double check.
However, the issue I'm facing exists both with the HDD plugged and unplugged.

I insist that this issue (but is it really an issue ? We're only talking of a very slow shutdown...) appears on both my Rpi 3b+ and 4.

I'm not sure what you are seeing, it may not really be important. If you go a restart instead of shutdown, is it any faster?

if you need the logging:
type in the terminal:
Code: [Select]
sudo nano /etc/systemd/journald.conf
and add: Storage=persistent under the section [Journal]
(don't forget to remove when you have your log.

Code: [Select]
#  This file is part of systemd.
#
...# See journald.conf(5) for details.

[Journal]
Storage=persistent
...
