[arm-allstar] A Bunch of Errors & Warnings

[TJ]

I forgot I also extended the cable from the node radio to the URI so that I can move it away from the node radio as well. The URI was picking up RF sending it to the BBB which was causing the BBB to shut down the USB port every time it tried to transmit.

I had this happen to mine when I first booted it up. The card was fine I rebooted the BBB using the reset switch and the node came back up. What I found was that I was receiving RF interference and it was locking up the BBB. I moved it a little farther away from the node radio and coax and have not had a problem since.

Doug, It's a 32GB SanDisk Ultra card. I need to find a smaller one. I just got it from Costco to experiment with I thought I could use later with my camera. It seems that they are getting larger everyday. :)  The power supply is the one that came with the BBB.  

I'll try another image and set it up again. I'll make a copy of the files this time.

Once everything is setup, can one make a smaller image as backup even though it's 32GB?

tnx, 73 Greg

Greg,

  Personally I have never seen a corrupted card so it does not happen often but it certainly could happen. What type card are you using?

I always tell people to buy at least two cards. If you have a second one burn it and see if it comes up OK and you can ssh in. If you only have one then you will have to re-burn the one you have.

Make sure the power is good to the BBB. That could cause crazy things to happen also. I have never seen a bad BBB but that could happen also. 

If the SD card were not booting it could also be booting the internal image. If that were happening you would not see the address you assigned come up in your router or if you are using dhcp the device name you assigned.
