Error with Raspberry Pi Boot after compressing

QUESTION

Error with Raspberry Pi Boot after compressing

Asked 2020-Dec-05 at 11:31

First of all I am using Raspberry Pi 4 Model B with Raspberry Pi OS.

I've made an image of Raspbian with some functionalities, later I've cloned it using Win32DiskImager and finally I compressed this image using this script: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Drewsif/PiShrink/master/pishrink.sh.

The last step I did was flashing the compressed .img to the SD using BalenaEtcher.

Before cloning and compressing the image I put it in read-only mode.

I have realized that the image with the read-only ON and being compressed => does NOT work.
But if read-only mode is OFF and I compress the image => IT WORKS FINE.

When introducing the SD that has the read-only mode ON, it stays in the boot screen and prints this:

raspi_boot_error

I think that compressing the image with PishRink script removes something that it don't have to remove...

Has it happened to someone or have someone suffered the same error that I have shown in the previous image? Any idea what it can be?

The problem was the PishRink script that was removing something that it doesn't have to remove...

I used a new script:

*** THIS SCRIPT ONLY WORKS ON RASPBIAN IMAGES. ***

To use this script, copy the code to a file called 'resizeimage.pl'.
