I discovered that if I set "useDropbear=false" in the config file, I do NOT get this error. lsof does show a couple of the Dropbear files open immediately after a reboot.

Is this a known issue? Or is there some other config modification that is needed? I found some discussion on the thread from a couple of years ago, but it looked like it was before the release of KSM9

Thanks!

I guess what is happening is that KSM starts with "usbnet automtically enabled on start". In this connection dropbear is also started because of "useDropbear=true". For some reason it seems KSM fails to unload dropbear before trying to switch to usb storage mode. Since the dropbear files are located on the user partition, mnt/onboard remains busy. This seems to be the general problem we would have to address, when trying to find a clean solution.
Since KSM is not supported anylonger, there is another question. Is it a problem for you to set "useDropbear=false"? Since this setting concerns only the use of dropbear for usbnet anyway (not for wifi),I see not much need of having it enabled. Actually, I never ever used dropbear myself.
