DigitalPackrat Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Hello I just got the MKIV last night and I am very green as far as the pineapple. My issue seems to be every thumb drive I install causes the system to hang almost like a boot loop. I tried the ext4 for mating, is my device botched? or am i just an idiot.I have always used windows but wanted to free my mind and am trying linux. Am i doing some thing wrong?

khaotic57 Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 What firmware version are you running? Are you powering it via battery pack or by AC outlet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DigitalPackrat Posted February 9, 2013 Author Share Posted February 9, 2013 I am on 2.7.0 And I am running on AC, same effect with USB power, and battery pack. I am trying to use a 4gb kingston and also a 16GB supertalent the name may be off, I have tried the format and all, the MKIV simishuts off and WPS blinks I have let it run for as long as 20 min with no stopping of the blinking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
