Hi,
I have a Raspberry Pi 4 with the latest firmware and I'm booting with an SSD through USB. However the booting time is really long and I get these two lines:
vc_vchi_sm_init: failed to open VCH service (-1)
vc_sm_connected_initil: failed to initialize shared memory service
Why does it take so long to boot through SSD? Is there any way I can speed it up?
Thank you
Default boot order Topic is solved
Re: Default boot order
Hi,
many thanks for your message. You could ignore these 2 lines. There have nothing to do with the long boot time. Once your system is booted up, you could run following to check timings during boot.

Re: Default boot order
Thanks for the swift response.
After reboot I got:

after running systemd-analyze blame:
2min 37s dev-sda2.device
1min 6s console-setup.service
36s networking.service
35s systemd-tmpfiles-setup.service.
the remaining are in ms

Re: Default boot order
Yeah, I that it is slow...
I googled a bit more and found that others have reported similar issues with the USB to SATA adapter
https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/issues/3070
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 152d:0578 JMicron Technology Corp. / JMicron USA Technology Corp. JMS567 SATA 6Gb/s bridge
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 2109:3431 VIA Labs, Inc. Hub
I guess I have to look for another one but not sure how to know which would be compatible.
Thanks again for the help, Joulinar!

Re: Default boot order
to bad, sorry that I'm not able to help. Maybe you can google the adaptors you have in mind and check if they are using JMicron chipset or not

Re: Default boot order
Hi, just wanted to report that the SATA to USB adapter was the issue.
I got a new SSD case which solved the problem. Thanks for the help
