Good job, it鈥檚 working again 馃檭
You are the best!

Please also remove the stored MOTD to refresh on next banner print: rm /run/dietpi/.dietpi-motd

working now

root@Pi4:~# rm /run/dietpi/.dietpi-motd
rm: cannot remove '/run/dietpi/.dietpi-motd': No such file or directory

All fine if the file is not present 馃檪.

I mark this as closed, as there shouldn't be any more effected users.
