Hey all,
I want to kick off the discussion about long running SD card based computers.
Currently, our image has no special adjustments to not harm the SD Cards, so I encountered problems with the SD Cards for more then 2 times on my long running PirateBox on the Freifunk network.
The problems are usually:
* Silent data corruption (rare)
* Filesystem errors, which end up
* in a freezing system or
* not rebooting system
An SD Card Problem usually isn't fixable anymore from the system and doing filesystem checks end up in a mess.
I want to initiate a better image with that discussion and share experiences on this topic.
I start off with a first article about that topic:
zdnet , extending the life of the SD card. it already covers alot of my first ideas.
What are your experiences?
Matthias
