cold reboot needed after mount_storage error at first boot after RPI4 LE12 nightly build on sd card flash

  • Hello:

    In two cases after flashing two latest RPI4 12 nightly builds on sd card, at first boot, an error like this appears in console:

    Code
    error in mount_storage. mount_common: could not mount UUID-xxxxxxxxxxxx ***
    ## Starting debugging shell for boot step: mount_storage... type exit to quit ###

    then, as I don't have keyboard available, must cold reboot RP4 and normal boot ensues

    note: I had edited config.txt before first boot to add some audio overlay, gpio-ir and little else.

    I did a scandisk and failsafe extract the card from a Windows PC card reader, and had used LibreELEC USB-SD Creator to flash without error.

    Sdcard is a 128GB microSDXC Canvas Go Plus 170R A2 U3 V30, #1 fastest card for PI according to https://pibenchmarks.com/brand/Kingston…us_%28SD128%29/

  • Yep, same problem for me. The latest versions of the v12 nightly builds are the exact same.

    1). Gotta flash the nightly build on a SD card

    2). Insert sd card into RPI4

    3). LibreELEC does a file system resize and then reboots

    4). error in mount_storage. mount_common: could not mount UUID-xxxxxxxxxxxx *** error starts

    5). Gotta plug off the raspberry pi and start it again, and it works!

    I really think this needs to be fixed. It didn’t happen in one of the older July releases.
