BBB does'nt allways mount sd card as storage #1633

Open smartaleciam opened 1 year ago

smartaleciam commented 1 year ago

Latest BBB 7.3 image When changing the storage Device to the SD Card, a pop up error says ' Failed to save storage Device setting'

I reboot yet it still keeps the sd card media 'unmounted'

I know the SD card works, because it worked with image 7.2 (but that also produced the above error when first installed)

I also get this error message. Have BBB running FPP from emmc. I insert a new sd card, format it (have tried ext4 and vfat) and mount it to a /mnt/fppmedia folder. It mounts fine. I can read from and write to it. When I try to tell FPP to use it as storage, I get "Failed to save storageDevice setting" popup. This is on 7.2 and 7.3.5

I can confirm that even though the error message appears, the /home/fpp/settings file is getting updated

Having the same issue with a BBB. can confirm that the settings file does change, but running the troubleshooting commands show that the SD card partition (mmcblk0p1) isn't being mounted as available to the file system

Commenting here as I had this happen on one of my K16s last year and have had two brand new builds also hit this. It seems like an issue with the formatting. I solved it by SSHing in and manually formatting the SD Card. It took awhile to format which may be what’s tripping things up.
