On an Rpi 3 model B V1.2, I changed the OTP to boot from usb device like here.

It works as it should but if I issue a "sudo reboot now" command, the computer shuts down but doesn"t reboot. If power cycle, it boots again.

What should I do?

Update with info from comments:
In facts, sometimes it reboots, sometimes no. I wonder if it could be a temperature issue.

This is a clean lite version of the os. On usb ports, I have a wired keyboard and an ssd to boot on. I also tried adding a "timeout" file on the SD, like suggested in the link in the original post. Power supply is a rpi original.

The system rebooted correctly with the sd AND the USB drive when system was on the sd.

  • The now is redundant and ignored in reboot. What happens if you try sudo shutdown -r? The pi should reboot in a minutes time. –  Jul 07 '20 at 17:30
  • It shuts down. No reboot. – Julien Jul 07 '20 at 19:32
  • Can you try with a clean Lite version of the OS with nothing in the USB? It could be a start up power issue - what do you have plugged in and what is the power supply you are using? –  Jul 07 '20 at 20:52

  • What about a reboot with the SD card only (nothing in USB) - it maybe the drive is pulling too much with the keyboard - what drive / keyboard are you using? –  Jul 09 '20 at 17:49
  • The system reboots correctly with the sd AND the USB drive when system is on the sd. I can't do your test because now (and this is the difference) system is on the USB drive. – Julien Jul 10 '20 at 08:10

  • What do you have on the SD card is the OS is on the USB drive? The PI normally throttles well (esp models that are not the 4) to keep the CPU/GPU running. Ive had them over 70C and working OK. –  Jul 10 '20 at 14:44
