RP2040 Feather with USB Host

[Claude_J_Greengrass]

My Pi4 doesn't seem to respond to the Hold Boot, Press Resset, Release Boot sequence.

I found that unplugging the RP2040, holding down the Boot button, and then plugging it in the the USB invokes the boot loader.

The Hold Boot etc. works on my Chromebook with Crostini and with my Chromebox with Crouton. I just imagined that "all" Linux machines would behave the same way. In this case my imagination was wrong. ;-)

That is a good data point. That (BOOT hold +RESET tap + BOOT release) works on one OS and struggles on another. I can’t reproduce it with my Linux box and it is surprising to me too if this turns out to be OS related.

I am getting a similar error.

Any suggestions?

These are two different errors. The original one in the post:

Code: Select all

Exception executing udisksctl. Exception: 'module' object has no attribute 'run'

is usually caused by running an older release of Python (< v3.5 ).

In your case the udisks2 package is not installed on your Linux system or the udiskctl command is not in your path.

Please start a new topic and we can help you troubleshoot it if this does not resolve by installing the missing package.
