J4ded Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Hey guys, I wanted to take a second to ask a few questions I'm hoping someone can help me out. Just a few little things. First off, I'm curious, what's the best way to go about powering the device off? Part of me thinks half the people here just yank the cord out of the wall, part of me thinks everyone will get a good laugh out of this question. Funnier than that though is that I have no shame in admitting I've done so, and as a result I do believe I've corrupted the SD card. It wont seem to mount and I can't install anything to it. Should I just use the web interface to format it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brazen Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 I shutdown by sshing (if thats an actual verb lol) into it and typing shutdown, wait 60 seconds and pull the power cable out. Not sure about ur card, i leave the to more knowledgable minds... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J4ded Posted February 27, 2014 Author Share Posted February 27, 2014 Makes sense, that is what I figured I should be doing is something like that. I was going to get a bigger SD card anyways so I'll go out and grab another one today and see if that's the case :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barry99705 Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Just pull the plug. Unless you're logging data to the card, it's not going to hurt it, even then you'll just lose the last bit of data in the log. The cards that come with the pineapple probably aren't the highest quality, most folks replace them with larger capacity cards anyway.
