Troubleshooting

Priviously on the version 9.19 everything was fine, but since version 9.20 I can’t boot anymore, because init file can’t be executed.

Here is the console output:

I also tried booting on alpine linux and everything worked, so I hope the problem is not in the hardware

It’s fresh instalation. I haven’t tried to update it when I was on 9.19

Maybe a challenge with the original Raspberry kernel.

@MichaIng are you able to verify this?
