[arm-allstar] Allstar System Update

[Doug Crompton]

Dan,

   I looked you up and I see you are very new to Allstar so disregard my
prior message. In any event welcome to Allstar and sorry you are having
problems.

Can you give us a little background on your system? Did you build it
yourself?  Did you write the SD card originally from a download from
hamvoip?  Are you using a good quality SD card? Sandisk Ultra is
recommended. I think the best thing to do is re-image a card and set it up
again.

It is also very important that you always shut your node down properly
using the menu or DTMF if you have that configured before you remove power.
It is also not a bad idea to have it on a UPS if you power is flaky. You
can often get away with improperly shutting down but there is no guarantee.
Also it is important to have good power to the Pi using a recommended wall
wart or equivalent and not some charger from something else.

Please let us know how you make out and if you have any other questions we
would be glad to answer them. This is the place to do it and not question
is a dumb question if you don't know the answer!
