Advanced users • Re: Power On Raspberry Pi 5 Automatically

Are you booting from something other than an SD card?

Powering over GPIO means no PD so the Pi assumes a maximum of 3A available. That means if booting from USB it will pause and wait until you confirm by pushing the power button.

There are a couple of ways around this:

1. Add usb_max_current_enable=1 to the end of your config.txt
2. Disable the USB current limit via sudo raspi-config. Look under "Performance Options"
3. See https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentati ... AX_CURRENT

Even if booting from SD you may want to apply one of the above as without PD total available current for connected USB devices will be limited to 600mA.
