What to do after you have the devices mounted? #1

Closed aribo closed 3 years ago

aribo commented 3 years ago

After hunting for the parts, tinkering with them until I could get a reasonable stable pogo (well rather "bare pin") connection, now I go four mounted devices: Home, Boot, RootA and RootB. I think the device boots from Root A by default, because this where the /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/xochitl.service is missing, in Room B is still there. However, I cannot work with the drives, it doesn't let me upload anything to them. Any ideas?

Shouldn't it be a link?

Yes, i managed now to copy the xochitl.service, but funny enough now the device doesn't want to shut off (?)

aribo commented 3 years ago

i actually had to copy the xochitl.service file from rootB copy it intp lib/systemd/system and then ln -s to /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/ (symbolic link) All this with sudo. It worked, but now the device doesn't turned off. When I push the button for 10 secs it flips and back to "is starting" screen.

Ok, now it worked! I did the following:

sudo cp /rootB/lib/system/systemd/xochitl.service /rootA/lib/system/systemd/xochitl.service
sudo cp /rootA/lib/system/systemd/xochitl.service /rootA/etc/systemd/system/xochitl.service
sudo ln -s /rootA/lib/system/systemd/xochitl.service /rootA/etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/xochitl.service

Thank you very much @ddvk for all your help. You've been very patient.

edit: added -s to ln command.
