[SOLVED] Crash / Segfaults after 18.4. update

Help and Support Raspberry Pi
1

Since accepting the 18.4 update I’ve been stuck in a sad face loop. The first things I tried was relocating userdate and .kodi but now I don’t think kodi ever made it that far into launching.

In journalctl I can see only almost instant segfaults but I don’t think any other log files have a chance to be created although I’ll provide anything requested which exists.

[UPDATE] Fixed in latest version 18.4.0-6 installed with
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Thanks for the rapid response last night. Shortly after posting my issue a storm came through and knocked out power until after I left for work this morning. In 5+ years of using OSMC I don’t think I’ve ever even needed to use your wiki or support pages before. Timing my only ever issue to coincide with power and internet outage is convenient and having it all fixed so quickly is outstanding. Many, many thanks

I’m guessing: this is why the apt repositories are disabled right now?

I moved your post to this thread just watch for updates here

10

OK, for info, I can access OSMC via SFTP

11

Getting the same issue here, sad face boot loop, I just updated through the OSMC interface (an hour ago), on rpi3.
Luckily it seems indeed to only be OSMC as I can still SSH into the pi.

Hopefully you guys find a solution soon :slight_smile:

If you can SSH into your pi,try
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade<-> sudo apt-get update
and after install update’s sudo reboot

You updated the apt cache but you didn’t tell it to upgrade anything.
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
reboot
