  1. Hi.

    I'm using Cubietruck, and installed Ubuntu server(mainline) on it.

     

    Suddenly, I can't write to disk(SD card). Actually, yes I can. I could create, edit, or even delete files, but all the changes are gone after the Cubietruck is rebooted.

    The deleted files are back, and created files are gone.

     

    What should I check?

    My SD card is Samsung Evo 16GB, and I'm running Cubietruck for more than 2 years. I have never encountered this weird situation.

  2. @tkaiser

    Your advice is always very helpful to me.(to everyone of course.) Thank you again.

     

    For the record, my SD card is Samsung Evo plus. I have not known that this SD card is better than average one, because I live in the country where Samsung's HQ is. ;-)

     

    And for the conclusion, it would be good not to resize the partiotion.

     

    Thank you all.

    how much reserve sectors are on a card that announces 125042688? Is it just 8192 more (4MB), is it 1048576 (512MB), is it any other value?

     

     

  4. I'm using Armbian 5.25(mainline, Ubuntu server) on Cubietruck.

     

    The partion is not extended to the full size of the SD card.

    About 1.6GB is remained in unused space.

     

    I know that Armbian needs 128MB emergency swap, but this 1.6GB is for swap?

     

    Quote

    Insert SD card into a slot and power the board. First boot takes around 3 minutes than 
    it reboots and you will need to wait another one minute to login. This delay is 
    because system updates package list and creates 128Mb emergency SWAP on the SD card. 

     

    Last time I installed Armbian, I manually steretched the partition to the full size.

    I'm wondering that might cause this.

  5. For anyone who might be interested in..

     

    Yes, another Sunday has come.

    It did not frozen, and I could connect to CubieTruck with ssh.

    However most of commands are not woking.

     

    ls works, but ps, lsof, reboot, shutdown... now work.

     

    I powered down and remove the SD card, and check it on my desktop PC.

    Here is the result of fsck.

     

    $ sudo fsck.ext4 -v -C 0 /dev/sdc1

    There must be something wrong with my SD card.

    I can change this card to a new one, but I have to visit the Customer center, or send it to them by mail.. Anyway it takes time.

     

    I've just reinstall Armbian again, and wait for another Sunday.

  6. The results of armbianmonitor -c $HOME.

    I don't know why it says read only file system, while it is not.

    My sd disk is Samsung MICROSDXC 64GB EVO PLUS.

    Is there something wrong with my sd disk?

  7. I'm using CT with Armbian 5.25(mainline) server version.

     

    The system hangs on every Sundays, and this is the 3rd time, since it hanged two weeks ago for the first time.

    When I connected a monitor with it, it says..

    mmcblk0 : error -5 sending status command, retrying
    blk_update_request : I/O error, dev mmcblk0, sector 1503312
    .... similar messages are repeated..

    I have no idea what causes this.

    I do not use CRON.

     

    I installed these packages.

    Mpd, nginx, nfs server, samba server, deluge-daemon, pure-ftpd, Resilio Sync.

     

    Can anyone help me?

  8. I compiled and installed Uboot, but it does not work either.

     

    I compiled uboot using these tools.

    OS : Ubuntu 16.04(64bit)
    Source : git://git.denx.de/u-boot.git
    Toolchain : https://releases.linaro.org/components/toolchain/binaries/6.2-2016.11/arm-linux-gnueabihf/gcc-linaro-6.2.1-2016.11-x86_64_arm-linux-gnueabihf.tar.xz

    I successfully made u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin, and installed it to my SD card, using dd command.

    This is my Uboot file.(https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwNiQ50_PJd2ZTVRWUg2LW5pVmc/view?usp=sharing)

     

    Vga output is defenitely dead. It's not working at all whether it is connected or not at the boot time.

    However, hdmi output is only working when it's connected at the boot time.

     

    I decide not to use hdmi out for the time being.

     

    Anyway, thank you for your concern.

    I really appreciate it.

  9. Hi.

    I'm using CubieTruck and Armbian mainline up to dated version.

     

    The CT is a headless server, so I don't connect any cable to it.

    However, one day the ssh server in CT did not work, I tried to connect CT to a monitor using HDMI cable.

    Even though I connect a cable, I could not see anything, and the monitor said 'No signal'.

    (Well, if the hdmi cable was connected, and CT is booted with it, the output is ok with hdmi signal.)

     

    If I connect with a vga cable, there is no problem.

     

    Here's what I want.

    I want to see the screen when I connect CT with a hdmi cable, even if the cable has not been connected.

    (I hope you understand what I mean..)

     

    I followed this, but there was no difference.

    https://docs.armbian.com/Hardware_Allwinner/#how-to-reconfigure-video-output

     

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks.

  10. Thank both of you, vlad and technik007_cz.

     

    Now I'm using the acrylic case, and change the adapter with a lower voltage one.

    The temperature is around 60~65. I think that's not that bad.

     

    The hdd.. could be a problem, but I use an external case for it, which has a own power source. Last time I check the temp. of a disk, it was under 50.

  11. Hi.

    I'm using CubieTruck with Armbian Jessie, attached with a Sata disk.

    I have tried these method to run hdparm when the system reboots, but none of them was successful.

    • /etc/hdparm.conf
    • /etc/udev/rules.d/50-hdparm.rules
    • /usr/lib/systemd/system-sleep/hdparm_set

    Finally, I chose the /etc/rc.local file, and add the hdparm command.

    hdparm -B 127 -S 242 /dev/sda

    However, it is not working always.

    I rebooted several times, and check the APM status with 'hdparm -B /dev/sda', the results vary.

    Sometimes it shows APM_level = not supported, but some other times APM_level = 127, as I specified.

    I don't know what was wrong about the command.
     ** I've found out that hddtemp(which is used everytime I log on to Armbian, by /etc/update-motd.d/30-sysinfo) 'sometimes' resets the apm level.
     

    Beside the other methods, I want to know why /etc/hdparm.conf does not work.

    I added these lines in hdparm.conf.

    /dev/disk/by-id/ata-SAMSUNG_HD103SJ_S246J1RZB00034 {
    apm = 127
    spindown_time = 242
    }

    However, it does not work at all.

     

    Can anyone give a clue?

  12. @technik007_cz Thank you for your concern.

     

    I'll try the test you suggested.

    My Hdd has been working fine since I last modifed the fstab option.

    By the way, I do not use USB port at all. Only SD card is used, and SATA port also. However, because the Sata disk has it's own power source(not coming from the Cubietruck), I don't think it's a matter of power.

     

    I'll tell you if there's something suspicious on the disk.

    Thanks!
