Re: [beagleboard] Re: shutdown procedure required for beaglebone black ??

I have an Element14 BBB running 4.1.10-ti-r22 Kernel and Debian 8.1 Jessie. A momentary press of the PWR button does not have any effect and the manual suggests it should start a shut down command. Holding it down for >8 seconds causes it to reset like the reset button so I know the hardware bu

Hi Robert, My apologies to you and the Forum for how I question every e-mail, but no, I'm neither a troll nor a lawyer. I'm actually a software engineer with a physics background. Thank you for showing me the chain of events that occur when the power button is pushed. I now understand what G

Hi Gerald, Do you mean the Linux *umount* command to *un*-mount the drive(s)? In an earlier post, you said, "Assuming that the SW supports the power button function." Were you saying that the *umount* command is assumed to support the function of the power button? Lawrence On Friday, August

Hi Gerald, Oops, by "may not necessary work", I mean, "may not necessarily work." Will I need to develop SW that supports the power button function - that is, will I need to develop SW to enable the button? We are refraining from powering up the BBB until we know for sure. Best regards, Lawr

Re: [beagleboard] Re: shutdown procedure required for beaglebone black ??

Hi Gerald, Please let us know we can unmount the drives and power down the BBB by either pushing the power button momentarily or using the Linux shutdown command. We are refraining from powering up the BBB until we know how to power down the board correctly. Lawrence On Monday, August 10, 20

Hi Gerald, So to unmount the drives and power down the BBB, I can either push the power button momentarily or use the Linux shutdown command? Lawrence On Wednesday, August 5, 2015 at 5:39:06 AM UTC-7, Gerald wrote: > > By doing this you can get corruption. Linux requires that you unmount the >

Section 5.10 in the SRM Rev C.1 recommends using the power button to power down the board and prevent contamination of the SD card or the eMMC. This section gives a brief explanation of why also. Chad On 8/5/2015 4:07 AM, lmjeu...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Gerald, Following the instructions on the

Re: [beagleboard] Re: shutdown procedure required for beaglebone black ??

By doing this you can get corruption. Linux requires that you unmount the drives before powering down. There is also a Linux shutdown command that can be used. Gerald On Wed, Aug 5, 2015 at 4:07 AM, wrote: > Hi Gerald, > > Following the instructions on the BeagleBoard.org - getting-started >

Re: [beagleboard] Re: shutdown procedure required for beaglebone black ??

Nope. If you do it the way I just said, the board is powered off after it is done. Then you can pull the power. Pull the power without letting the kernel unmount the eMMC or SD card, and you can get corruption. Gerald On Sun, Oct 13, 2013 at 1:31 PM, wrote: > So pulling out the power with pr
