Script Command

sudo python3 adafruit-pitft.py --display=22 --rotation=90 --install-type=console

Operating System

Raspberry Pi OS Buster light 2021-05-28

Hardware

Raspberry Pi 4B

Behavior

When running sudo python3 adafruit-pitft.py --display=22 --rotation=90 --install-type=console and after reboot, my Raspberry Pi 4B freezes and the screen remains black but and my screen attatched to the hdmi port 0 freezes on terminal output "Load/save RF kill Switch Status". - I have to completely wipe the os and reload it because it makes my pi unusable.

However, whenever I run sudo python3 adafruit-pitft.py --display=22 --rotation=90 --install-type=fbcp (ie with FBCP option) I am able to reboot but the screen still remains black even after attempting this hdmi force solution

So I figured I'd try to get this up and running with a PiTFT 2.8" Capacitive touchscreen bc i had one lying around to see if there was the same behavior -

I ran sudo python3 adafruit-pitft.py --display=28c --rotation=90 --install-type=consoleand rebooted - it successfully shows the console on the 2.8" screen and is fully operational.

not sure if the 2.2" setup script has something different than the 2.8" Capacitive one, but it seems there might be something there causing a crash?
