OctoPi won't boot without HDMI attached #801

Closed sidamos closed 1 year ago

What were you doing?

  1. Flash OctoPi stable using Pi Imager on Windows
  2. Boot Pi 4B

When I do not attach HDMI during very first boot, even resize fails and the system is not usable, even when I reboot with HDMI attached. Have to re-flash the card then. If I attach HDMI for first boot, everything works fine. I can configure Octo Print and I can reboot multiple times (warm and cold). If I then detach HDMI and try to boot, it does not boot fully. No ping. No ssh.

Tried 2 different SD cards. Tried 2 different power supply (original and UGreen 3A).

What did you expect to happen?

Boot without HDMI monitor attached.

What happened instead?

Looks like a boot loop, but cannot say for sure because not even ping works.

Did the same happen when running OctoPrint in safe mode?

Does not apply, I think.

Version of OctoPi

0.18.0.

Printer model & used firmware incl. version

Does not apply.

Screenshot(s)/video(s) showing the problem:

Does not apply.

Now I downloaded the Octo Pi image and flashed it with Linux and dd instead of Pi Imager on Windows. Same result.

Have you tried a normal RPi OS image?

Just tried the standard Raspberry PI OS 32 Bit (with desktop) and it behaves the same. Although I don't know, if this is normal for the desktop edition. I'll try next the light version.

Alright, seems to be a hardware issue. Sorry for the noise.
