Please manually run “apt update” and report back the output.

Hmmm, I’m afraid that I’ve found the problem.

After “apt-get update” or “apt update” the following is displayed;
“Segmentation fault”

So… I can’t find a way to repair this (search on duckduckgo/google)
I think will buy a new MicroSD card and start all over. The problem is probably also in the back-up. Because I’ve used an old backup after I’ve noticed this problem.

If there is another solution, I hope you all will help me.

Just to add my problems with 6.21.1 on a Raspberry Pi 3 B+. I installed a 6.20.6 last month and it worked fine. Today I logged in for the first time in a month and it told me there was an update.

It ran for quite a while downloading etc rebooted and then it ran 15 (I think) finalization scripts and each had the same syntax error. It was something like ‘error after the for’. And the version wasn’t updated, so after it rebooted, it offered me an upgrade again.

I tried another path- downloading the latest stretch and burning on Windows. It also is 6.20.6 and after installing does an update and will keep rebooting and doing the same update steps, time after time unless you ctrl-c out. So I think this release on Raspis is a little bit broken. It only seems to be the last bit with the syntax errors.

Please try the newly uploaded RPi image, which resolves some boot issues on RPi: https://dietpi.com/downloads/images/DietPi_RPi-ARMv6-Buster.7z

Thanks, the new SDcards are ordered. I will start all over with the new image.

Did it help resolve the boot issues on RPI?

I switched to a later version 6.22 when that came out and just setup everything from scratch. When 6.23.x came out, it was detected and the upgrade worked perfectly. I continue to be highly impressed with DietPi. Great job!
