Ok, what I mean is that if the FR hangs for some reason, looses power or whatever, I must powercycle it to reboot it. When this happens the debian part of the sd card is unbootable. I can then normally rescue it with "testdisk". I dont think I ever even tried suspend/resume on debian. > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: >> Fox Mulder <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: >> >>> The kernel shipped with debian has the corruption bug. >>> To update your kernel you must do it by hand.
