I tried installing v 9.13 on a 3a+. I tried a couple of fresh installs and tried two "known good" cards. It always ended up running for a few hours and then freezing up. It's a bit difficult to post logs from a frozen pi but I could capture something before it freezes.
I don't think it's a network problem. The signal strength is better than -45 dBm at the location and I have other network devices that run fine there including a pi 4 and pi5 running v 9.13.
This isn't a matter of life and death. It's a hobbyist fooling around. I have more pis than I need. I'm retired and need to do something computer related. I was interested in using this one mainly as an alarm, using the new doesn't have to be on the play list feature. I can't rule out the pi being less than perfect because I had it in my living room system connected to my AVR via HDMI. It sat on top of the AVR for several months. probably a warmer than optimum location. OTOH, it runs PiCoreplayer reliably. I've just loaded the 32 bit version of v. 8.3.9 and I'm currently waiting to see how long that lasts.
