Tom,

My SD card is getting corrupted after issuing the reboot command and de-powering the board. And I must de-power the board to save power. Here is the sequence:

1) From uClinux, issue reboot command
2) Exits uClinux and enters to DEBUG> prompt
3) De-power entire board.

Not every time, but sometimes the SD card is getting corrupted from this. Does anyone have any advice or know of a better method? Would it be better just to 'umount' the drive, and then de-power, skipping the reboot step?

Steve Bennett implemented a uClinux 'poweroff' command that turns the power off on a WildFire board with the RTC option (and no short across the Wakeup pads). It appears to do quite a bit of background work before turning off the power. Perhaps it closes any open files, etc..?

Bfn,

Bob Furber


Thanks,

Tom
