ntdp fails in setup, can't continue

I’m trying to install DietPi. When I get to the point where it goes out to get the time it fails and setup is terminated. I am connected to my router with the Ethernet port on my Raspberry Pi B. I am able to see the board with my router, I had it connecting to the internet running non-DietPi firmware.

I tried changing a couple of ntp entries from Canada, thinking maybe it would help. It didn’t. I tried setting the time manually and still I can’t get further.

[info] NTPD: Waiting for completion of time sync (20/20)

From the log,

What can I do to get the setup to complete the install?

Hi Rudy,

Thanks for the report.

Try, relaunching ntpd:

/DietPi/dietpi/func/run_ntpd
dietpi-software

If it still fails, you can override this prevention:

echo 0 > /etc/dietpi/.ntpd_exit_status
dietpi-software
