RevPi Connect 8GB freezing up after a few minutes.

Post by chiphum »

Hello,

I just got a new RevPi Connect with 8GB and out of the box when I turn it on will freeze up after a few minutes. This happens when it boots to both the terminal or the GUI.

Any Ideas or do I need to send the unit back?

Thanks

Chip

Hi,

Since it is still new, maybe you can flash the image and see if the problem still persist.

Hi,
please flash the image on the RevPi Connect, how it works can be found here.
If the problem has not disappeared, I will send you an RMA form.

Thanks! It seems to be fixed now.

Per the link you posted I reflashed the image.

I had to use another Raspberry Pi to do this so I followed the linux instructions on the below link but did confirm the download per WinMD5 before I used it.

one note: for the command "sudo dd if=raw_os_image_of_your_choice.img of=/dev/sdX bs=4MiB" i had to to replace "of=/dev/sdX" -->"of=/sda"
