I’ve been trying out DietPi today, and it just isn’t working for me. Here’s my process:
Raspberry Pi 2, 4GB sd w/ v94, ethernet, 2a power supply
Login via SSH
Update to 97, reboot, wait 2 minutes
Login via SSH
USB drive: No, I'm setting this up with Ampache, media on NAS.
Optimized Software: VNC, LAMP, ProFTP
Boot Options: Yes, VNC
Additional Software: Curlftpfs
FTP Client setup now: Yes
Network Options: Static, correct addresses, Apply
Test Network: Online
FTP client: install curl
FTP client: setup, says connected, exit, back to Dietpi-Config
Overclocking: med
Locale: deselect en_gb, select en_us
Timezone: America>New York, exit
Go Start Install
During the Install process, setting locale fails, falls back to default (which shouldn't be an issue).
Set VNC password
Reboots, wait 10 minutes
Connection Refused w/ SSH and VNC
Once it reboots, it goes to emergency mode. Logging in starts an endless loop of echos stating it’s copying to RAM. I let it sit for 40 minutes, with no luck. Please let me know what info you would like for diagnosis. Where is the log stored for the install process? Also, if you’re in any IRC chatrooms please let me know; I think it would be easier to communicate efficiently there, assuming we were both present.
