mcu ‘rpi’: Unable to connect
Once the underlying issue is corrected, use the
“FIRMWARE_RESTART” command to reset the firmware, reload the
config, and restart the host software.

The klippy host software is attempting to connect. Please
retry in a few moments.

Fill out above information and in all cases attach your klippy.log file (use zip to compress it, if too big). Pasting your printer.cfg is not needed

Describe your issue:

I’ve tried all the options: updating firmware, changing cables, going through all the steps from the beginning, but nothing changes.

Hello @Remi !

The issue is not your printer board, it’s your secondary mcu:

mcu 'rpi': Unable to open port: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/tmp/klipper_host_mcu'

Take care to not mix up the identifier:

Try:

[mcu host]
serial = /tmp/klipper_host_mcu

Have you setup the additional code?

We trust you have received the usual lecture from the local System
Administrator. It usually boils down to these three things:

#1) Respect the privacy of others.
#2) Think before you type.
#3) With great power comes great responsibility.

Please do not post just some fragment from which nobody sees what command you have issued and what has happened before the error

Edit:
It just looks like you issued a wrong / not applicable make flash command that is not covered under the relevant documentation.
