Why not try a Card reformat (use the proper SD tool) https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_4/ and reinstall an older version, http://sourceforge.net/projects/picoreplayer/files/insitu/piCorePlayer1.22_RPi/piCorePlayer1.22_RPi.img/download Or you could just repeat the install with the current version. atb Ronnie ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Man in a van's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=43627 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=105018 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
