comitup not working in latest OSv2

[Max07B2]

I continued my testing with HWv1/OSv2 and noticed that comitup is broken.

Observation
I flashed the sd card with OpenMowerOS_20251016.img and no configuration within Raspberry Pi Imager - so tried complete default.
The comitup ap appears after quite a long time but I cannot connect to it. It seems that the ap recurringly is there and vanishes (that's a bit of speculation though)

Analysis

• I tried to connect with iOS, Android and Linux => no connection to the ap
• I double checked with
  • OpenMowerOS_20250916.img (RC1) => comitup works
  • OpenMowerOS_20251001.img (RC2) => comitup works (but the browser seems not to show the page automatically)
  • OpenMowerOS_20251016.img (latest) => no connection as described above

Environment

• HWv1
• Yard Force Classic 500 with mainboard 0_11_X_WT901
• no NTRIP usage

A summary of the changes CodeRabbit can apply:

• Add commands to stage-openmower/20-comitup/00-run-chroot.sh to disable and mask dhcpcd.service (keeping the dhcpcd binary available) so NetworkManager exclusively manages wlan0 and comitup AP stability is restored.

• Update stage-openmower/20-comitup/00-run-chroot.sh to disable and mask dhcpcd.service (while noting dhcpcd binary remains available for ifupdown on eth0), preserving the existing masking of NetworkManager-wait-online.service and keeping the default ap_name append to /etc/comitup.conf.

I also noticed this today, when the mower knows a network and it vanishes (e.g. router turned off), the Hotspot starts up, but only for a short time.

When I completely remove the saved WiFi information though, it works as expected (hotspot stays up until I am connected).

This is on RC2

Note

Just checked on 2525-12-16. Still not fixed in comitup
