Message-ID: <446264DCB3564D7C8FA7116E5B144383@eigenstate.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <17482394280.5CCF2ef7.20263@composer.9fans.topicbox.com>
what are the contents of your commandline.txt(?) (I think that's
the place where you configure your command line). The '-A' that
you're adding there should be present.
from what I remember, the commandline.txt format puts all args
on one line, so perhaps there's some quoting needed?
Quoth experimentech@gmail.com:
> The only way I can get my Pi4 to boot from the gefs partition is to delete everything from /srv/gefs first.

> Using -Ac or even just -c doesn't help. It just churns through entries then after a couple of pages fails with a broken pipe.
>
> This is what I'm faced with every boot. I haven't got a clue how to fix it and haven't had any luck on finding information. Can someone help me with it? It was a huge pain to even set it up with gefs on Pi, and if I can, I want to be able to save it.
