"mmc0: Timeout waiting for hardware interrupt"

[jimbolaya]

I've been having issues with my Helios4 becoming unresponsive when it's been up for a while.

 

I decided to do some more thorough investigating and found that it was having problems writing to the sdcard. That led to the following entries in syslog:

Is it possible this is due to the power supply starting to go bad? I haven't yet tried using different sdcards, but that would be my next step.

 

Has anyone else seen this?

From the error messages I would expect it to be the card. 

 

I have a similar problem but mine is a worn out sd card slot, so I just boot from a different medium now.

I had a bunch of random issues - stuttering, freezes, issues while copying. It turned it out the issue was extreme amounts of dust on my unit. I disassembled it, thoroughly cleaned everything out - and that fixed my issue
