Thanks for reporting. And weird, since this kernel is quite old and worked well since a year or more on all RPi 1 and Zero models, including my own RPi Zero W.
However, we want to migrate to the new kernel and firmware stack for all RPis anyway soon. Can you give this image a try? It uses the new kernel that equals the one from recent RPi OS Bookworm: https://dietpi.com/downloads/images/testing/DietPi_RPi1-ARMv6-Bookworm.img.xz
Thanks for your reply @Michalng!
I tried it. With the new image my Pi does not boot at all. After about 1sec. LED starts constantly blinking (sth like 0.5s on /0.5 off). Do not see anything on UART.
Btw - I’m confused with this situation as well. This Pi worked for a year or so with very old RPi image as a bridge for Xiaomi Thermometers to SUPLA system. Then I moved to another solution and put Pi into the drawer for a long time.
After I failed with Bookworm image I also tried DietPi Bullseye with 50% success. I was able to fininsh an installation and first boot and do an initial config. But the same situation happend during dowloading packages for PiHole and Unbound (with nginx).
I tested Raspbian Lite (bookworm) also - pihole worked for a few hours (aprox. 1AM - 8AM) than the same thing happend.
Hmm, maybe it is a hardware issue then, typically SD card. Do you have another SD card to test with?
And if you get an image up with the current one, before installing anything else, drop to a shell and check for kernel errors:
dmesg -l 0,1,2,3
Maybe some I/O or filesystem errors are shown before already.
I tried 3 different SD cards (Sandisk, Sandisk Ultra, Kingstone).
I used bullseye image once again. System booted up correcly. I configured basic staff like STATIC IP, regions etc.
Update with dietpi-update was succesfull.
WiFi Internet connecion is stable ~72/72 Mbps.
No messages on levels 0,1,2,3.

I can’t believe, it’s a SD Card issue, but ofc it is not a problem to buy a new one.
Is there anything else I can do or test? I do not like to give up to quick :-]
