I am afraid I don't know.

That was my understanding.  Looking at my RPi, I realized I had
activated logging sometime in the past because I find the following in
/var/log

Code:


  tc@kitchen:/var/log$ ls -l
  total 3260
  -rw-r--r--1 root root 0 Dec 31  1969 autologin
  -rw-r--r--1 root root  2940 Jan 11 08:05 pcp_boot.log
  -rw-r--r--1 root root   3331603 Jan 12 12:08 pcp_squeezelite.log
  drwxr-xr-x2 tc   staff  100 Jan 12 11:09 slimserver/
  
  tc@kitchen:/var/log/slimserver$ ls -l
  total 24
  -rw-r--r--1 tc   staff0 Jan 11 08:04 perfmon.log
  -rw-r--r--1 tc   staff  906 Jan 12 12:09 scanner.log
  -rw-r--r--1 tc   staff16744 Jan 11 17:45 server.log
  
  



I suspect this was the cause of my corruption.  If you happen to recall
how to turn this logging off (ideally via the command line), you'll save
me some time.  I've tried searching a bit.

If you are not using LMS of piCorePlayer the easiest and quickest way
after a crash is to just do a full/clean reinstall and reconfig your pCP
config manually, assuming that you don't have adjusted the config too
much in the past.
pCP runs completely into memory if you do playback only.

I was able to successfully copy the files over to a new SD card and it
seems to be working.  The main challenge was getting confused with some
permission issues for the PCP_BOOT partition until I remembered it was
VFAT rather than ext4.  I look forward to trying the upgrade from 7.0 to
8.0 and then 8.1 to utilize the new backup abilities.

hi audiomike,

Sorry to hear about your bad luck.

My recommendation is to do what you don't want to do, so I can't help.
:(

regards
Greg
