Version 6.4 Raspberry Pi Zero W - broken links?

Troubleshooting
1

Over the weekend I reinstalled DietPI on a Raspberry Pi Zero W. The download image was 6.2, which upgraded to version 6.4 as part of the install process. I installed some software (lighttpd, openssh), and created a /root/.bash_profile with some commands. I now note that running “dietpi-config” fails unless the full path is provided, and that upon login I don’t get the customary DietPi information.

Can I fix this through the gui?

Hi,

Please do not remove the DietPi entries in /root/.bashrc

Ensure the following entries exist at the end of the file above:

. /DietPi/dietpi/func/dietpi-globals
/DietPi/dietpi/login

Thanks for the fix. I did not delete anything from the .bash_profile file, BTW, so I am not sure what exactly happened.

Apologies, should of been /root/.bashrc

Please can you verify those entries exist?

And please paste results of service status for:

systemctl status dietpi-ramdisk -l

Thanks @K-plan

If you get time:

  • Anything installed on the system?
  • Same error after multiple reboots?
  • systemctl restart dietpi-ramdisk
  • /DietPi/dietpi/dietpi-ramdisk 0

Quick test here is fine with ZeroW:

  • V6.3 > v6.3
  • note: RPi kernel updated via APT
