[PROBLEM] Volume issue on moode 8.0.2

[sand87ch]

There are three mysterious time gaps in your log which total about 3-1/2 minutes. I compare this to an Pi4B on my desk running moOde 8.1.2 which just now took about 20 seconds to complete the file check and no time (in recorded seconds) to complete the other two steps. This makes me wonder if your system memory card (uSD? USB?) is up to snuff.

Code:

20220802 031242 worker: File check (OK)

PS - have to add the usual caveat that the Pi's power supply and power cable have to be of good quality or all sorts of odd behavior can occur.

PPS - I have a 32GB uSD card on my PI4B. I suppose if one had a vastly bigger card, 256GB say, stuffed full of music tracks it might take two minutes to complete the file-system check even if the card were up to snuff but that wouldn't account for the large variability in boot times you reported (up to 10 minutes and waiting). --- I don't recommend putting moOde on a large memory card for various reasons. This possible time delay is one I hadn't thought of.

ok Kent.mine i guess is a 16/32 gb of sandisk.i dont put any songs on it.the memory card has just the os.its pretty new one,probably some 6-8 months old but hey repeated writes and deletes could have made the card bad.who knows.let me get one more log.i will post here.But you could be write about the sd card.i will purchase a new one probably and check.

The power brick is the allo nirvana and it seems to be ok from the looks of it,and not too old.
