Trouble with DeskPi Pro Booting from USB
I've been dealing with this this morning, and have got to to fully boot from the SSD twice now, seeing the timeout and drop to emergency shell. I'm still not quite sure what's different about the times that I have got it to boot successfully. It does seem there's a good number of folx on their github with issues too.
