Thanks for the explanations. I'm still a bit confused about how I'm meant to use the python api though. If I don't mount the file system with 'sudo /opt/owfs/bin/owfs --allow_other -u /root/EEPROM......./' then when I go straight to python and do the usual set up: import ow ow.init('u')
The file system isn't mounted i.e. os.listdir('/root/EEPROM......./') comes up empty. So I still can't access the EEPROM from the file system. Is there a way to remove an instance without removing the file structure? I've used 'fusermount -u /root/EEPROM...../' from both inside python (using subprocess to get at the terminal) and in the terminal directly, but that removes the whole file system. Is it worth dropping owfs and just going straight to owserver? I didn't think I'd need owserver because the BBB only has one USB and I was going to place multiple EEPROMs on the same bus using just 1 USB adapter. -- View this message in context: http://owfs-developers.1086194.n5.nabble.com/Diagnosing-disappearing-devices-adapters-tp10045p10052.html Sent from the OWFS Developers mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sponsored by Intel(R) XDK Develop, test and display web and hybrid apps with a single code base.
