I noticed modemmanager was installed during the script run. This should be avoided/removed because it is known to cause issues with serial bluetooth (such as EQmod BT dongles)
Also, I'm not sure if it is related to your script or not, but I could not see my USB flash media drives mount at all.
Over all I must say the script worked very well. Thank you.

Yes, modem manager being removed used to be a part of the script. I can go check that it is. It certainly should not have been installed during the script run, but some other program may have it as a dependency. I can check.

Nope, weird.. it was in my steps that I had listed in 2017, but it is missing from the first iteration of the automated script. I don't remember any reason for why I would have removed that step. I can put it back.

Ihoujin,

The modem manager removal is restored.

Correct, volumes should not mount automatically because that interferes with the ability to connect to a number of cameras. Please see this for details:

Unless there is a better way to solve this problem that I don't know about?

Perhaps this is a better solution?

I can try to implement that on Wednesday.

Also, the IP address is now checked when installing Link Local, so you can't end up with a situation like Ihoujin reported.

I am aware of the canon mounting issue that has affected some users. Although I use a canon t3i, it has never come up for me.

I seemed to be having the same issue with my Nikon Z7 on my Odroid-N2 (which I attributed to my permitting updates to the system until things broke). I re-flashed my Odroid-N2 system, did a system update and used Rob's AstroPi3.sh script to get things working again. The only addition for me was re-compiling the driver for my rtl8822bu wifi dongle (which I see now Rob also has a script for) and using NoMachine for remote desktop access (apparently there is no EGL/GPU Acceleration on X11 on the N2).
Thank you Rob.

I have just encountered the same issue. Everything was fine at first. But now when I try to run a profile from EKos, KStars crashes.
I have been configuring various things in the meantime so I am not sure when it broke.

Are you trying to start a profile with the simulators or something else on the same machine or another machine? Any specific drivers ?

Simulators, natively within the Pi. But it also crashed with a custom profile.
