Used Samsung Evo Plus and two different lines of Kingston. The only thing that may be related is that I have another NTFS-formatted microSD as /dev/sda1 and it somehow confuses PCP. Below is inifinite reboot loop that went away after physically removing the 2nd card. '[image:

Is there anything that can be done with SD card issues on PCP and RPi in general? Today, after a couple of days of doing nothing (no power loss inbetween!) I tried to do something with LMS - and got message about lack of write permissions to settings directory on mmcblk0p2. Rebooted - bang! -

PCP 4.0 After power loss event, pcp now starts only to prompt (tc@piCorePlayer:~$). Power cycling does not change the situation. It seems networking is not started, as I cannot connect to pcp with SSH. What's wrong?

Hello Another issue: After adding jivelite.sh in tce, jivelite seems to not persist settings - after each reboot I have select language etc anew. Also, settings for Sleep mode or screenblanker do not work. I suspect jivelite has now issues wit saving settings (???). Any advice?
