Wifi Pineapple Nano SDCard Issue


Khan1988

Recommended Posts

Hi Folks

i bought pineapple nano few days ago and i am running firmware version 2.7.0. The problem is that i can't see my sdcard that i inserted in it to install modules.

I format the sd card in configuration - USB & Storage, once the format is complete i restart the nano as per some forums but so far i am not getting any luck. if i will try to install any module it will still show to install internally.

Any help in this regard would be much appreciated.

the fstab looks like below


config global
    option anon_swap '0'
    option anon_mount '0'
    option auto_swap '1'
    option auto_mount '1'
    option delay_root '5'
    option check_fs '0'

config mount
    option target '/sd'
    option device '/dev/sdcard/sd1'
    option fstype 'auto'
    option options 'rw,sync'
    option enabled '1'

i am sorry bro i access it from the web interface not terminal. I know there is a way to telnet it with putty but didn't try it yet.

Any guidance towards resolution would be highly appreciated.

By the way the card works if i put it in the card reader

Buddy can you establish an SSH connection to your pineapple?

In the web interface you can see this under Advanced USB & Storage but I don't see whether the SD card was recognized even if no SD card is inserted, the message when formatting, formatting is successful. Where I find it a little strange 😲

The safest way is to set this via ssh in my opinion

Hi

thanks for bearing with me bro, i install putty and trying to ssh to wifi pineapple but for some reason can't really connect. The error is "Remote Side expectedly closed network connection" and than putty just close it self.

i tried to search it a bit either but there is not really a lot of settings to configure in putty to connect to wifi pineapple. I open the session put the ip 172.16.42.1 and in port section 1471 and as soon as i connect the error shows up and close.

I am soory man if this is too basic for you but i really need your help to figure this out thanks once again

i have been reading and been advised by many people to install 2.6.2 firmware for the same issues. its more stable than the new release well i tried and i reset my firmware to 2.4.2 which is the default recovery mode. how can i install 2.6.2 manually where in advance menu it automatically takes me to the newest version which i was running earlier.

Possibly having the same problem here:

thinking I would see it with df if it was mounted, correct?

root@Pineapple:~# df

Odd... I would have thought this would have worked on the Nano. Any thoughts as to why it does not?

but web gui...

 

            total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available
Mem:          59556       28776       12600          72       18180       10056
Swap:       4194288        1012     4193276

 

Plz send halp, when going to modules in the web gui there is no option for saving to sd, and the gui format sd dropdown fails...

Hi guys,
I have the same problem for some reason I can't mount the SD card - Sandisk 64GB, visible with GUI, formats it. However, it is impossible to install modules on it, only the installation on the internal card works. root @ Pineapple: ~ # fdisk -l - detect new SD card - Firmware latest 2.7.0 - Pineapple Nano.
PS. Maybe you have some beginner tutorials on nano configuration?

The problem is solved, it was enough to change fstab to:

config global
option anon_swap '0'
option anon_mount '0'
option auto_swap '1'
option auto_mount '1'
option delay_root '5'
option check_fs '0'

config mount
option target '/ sd'
option device '/ dev / sda1'
option fstype 'auto'
option options 'rw, sync'
option enabled '1'

config 'swap'
         option device '/ dev / sda2'
         option enabled '1'

And then format the SD card
