Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Impact to SD card when installing LMS

[paul-]

What I would recommend.

    
- Use quality SD cards, 8GB should be more than enough for pCP and a
  big LMS cache.
- Make sure you have a good power supply
- install pCP, and expand the pCP partition from the web interface to
  about 500MB.  500MB is plenty big enough for all of the extension and
  to allow room for upgrades.
- Manually create a 3rd partition on the SD card to fill the rest of
  the sdcard, and format it ext3.
- Then set LMS to use that 3rd partition for the cache/prefs.
  

This way any possible corruption to the 3rd partition will not prevent
pCP from starting.
