I have several Rev C BBB units, that have been in use enough to be considered "trusted" hardware.
All of them, running Debian 8.1 kernel 3.14 are rock solid. By that, I mean that they will run for months without problems. Maybe longer, I have not left them undisturbed for any longer than that. I have tried to run the Debian 8.1 / kernel 4.1.x test releases, and they all autonomously reboot several times per day. No regular or reproducible pattern, nothing in the syslog, other than the reboot process itself. This includes the 2015-07-05 kernel 4.1.1 release. (bone-debian-8.1-lxqt-4gb-armhf-2015-07-05-4gb.img) All I do is put it on a 16 GB card, expand the available memory to 16 GB from 4 GB, and turn off the 4 blinky lights. No other changes. The unit will reboot at random, several times per day. This has been common to all the kerenl 4.1 releases. Although a random pattern to the reboots, it is easy enough to reproduce. If you turn off the blinky lights, it is easy to recognize, since they come back on when it reboots. Or examine the syslog. --- Graham == -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
