Re: [beagleboard] Beaglebone Black Rebooting Several Times Every Day
That's good, but what has caused the random rebooting? Can one fix it without updating to v3.14.23-ti-r34. Or in other words how can I fix it with the v3.12.9 if it's possible? Am Mittwoch, 19.

@William: you speak as if I was a newcomer to Linux. Truth is, I was one of the first to embrace Linux back in the 80s when I worked in Computer Services at the local University.

It refers to an ethernet interface such as a USB device being plugged in. In order to get the behaviour you want you need ifplugd. To quote from the package description:- Description-en: configuration daemon for ethernet devices ifplugd is a daemon which will automatically configure your ethernet device when a cable is plugged in and automatically de-configure it if the cable is pulled out. This is useful on laptops with onboard network adapters, since it will only configure the interface when a cable is really connected.

Before, it wouldn't get recognized unless I had a 'constantly on' device also plugged into the hub (like a printer), so dbus upgrade 'fixed' something regarding that issue The really good news is I've been up for two days with no random reboots.

Re: [beagleboard] Beaglebone Black Rebooting Several Times Every Day
William, I'm not using any I/O at this time. Setting this up in steps. First was to get it running as a CUPS and weewx Server like my RasPi. I can 'play' with it later once it's stable. Found a cable on eBay for $6 shipped from CA using PL303HX claims 3.3v TTL. Also, no resets since 3pm yesterday when I switched PS. Maybe there is a problem with the SuperPowerSupply model KZ0502000, although the other BBB (element14) was resetting using both PS (SPS and Garmin) and even a direct USB connection. It's possible that there was a problem with both the other BBB and the SPS power supply. If it's happy with the Garmin I'll get a different 5v2a supply. I am also solar but use a hybrid Grid-Tie Outback and a Manual Transfer Switch so when we lose power, it's dark until I can get to the switch. That's why I have all my electronics (cable modem, router, Vonage, etc on a UPS.

Hi Robert i am having the same issues with at least 10 individual bbb boards both rev 5b and 5c and from booth adafruit and curcuitco. We are currently running them on a board with nice lab qualiy profesional 5v sources and ethernet and are pinging them constantly to simulate some sort of network activity. We have two of them connected via uart0 serial and have been logging that without spotting anything weird. Basically they just reboot. there is no trace of Oops or Panic... We have tried the 3.14 kernels from ti and your kernel builds up to the 3.16.2-bone5 build. we have also compiled custom kernels trying to disable stuff like the otg based on another thread without success. Still we still have an average of one reboot per day. we do have access to serial cables and are happy to assist with any debug info you might want. We have found nothing in dmesg and when logging the serial console we have so far seen nothing. I actually starts looking as a proper reset.

Re: [beagleboard] Beaglebone Black Rebooting Several Times Every Day
Another reset early this afternoon, so I have shutdown and removed the 5v2a cheapo PS and replaced it with a Garmin 5v1a PS I have that uses the mini USB instead of the banana plug. I want to eliminate the current PS as the problem. All my PS are in two power strips plugged into an APC Battery Backup so power is conditioned, filtered, and constant. I'm spending waaa too much time with this since my RasPi has been set up same way and running 24/7 since I plugged it in with zero issues. Am I the only one with constant resets on a BBB? I'm hesitant to drop $24 on a serial debug cable that I'll use maybe two days to capture data that might or might not shed light on the issue.

Re: [beagleboard] Beaglebone Black Rebooting Several Times Every Day
Oh, and right, only time I've had my beaglebone black reset, is when it loses power ( we switch from generator, and back to solar ). Or I've intentionally reset it. Mostly I reset my own board because I make lots of changes to various things, and I want to make sure it comes back up as intended from a reset.

Re: [beagleboard] Beaglebone Black Rebooting Several Times Every Day
Greg, buying a serial debug cable really is necessary if you intend to do anything serious with the BBB. However . . . http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/351093728732?lpid=82 According to the PL2303HX datasheet it is 3v3 TTL, but double check for yourself. I've seen these cheap USB-Serial converters go for as low as 2-3 USD. Cables, 6 bux US is about as low as I remember having seen them. From what I understand they're also supposed to be fairly decent, but as with anything else YMMV. You said something about having other cables / modules just wrong header ? why not whip an adapter up ? Not that hard to make / use jumper wires . . . does matter if it looks pretty so long as it serves it's purpose.

I ordered mine from China and the slow boat shipping, typically 3 to 4 weeks. They are very versatile little boards. Another option if you have a level converter handy is use your Rpi to get the serial output from the BBB. If memory serves the Rpi is 5 volt on everything.

Re: [beagleboard] Beaglebone Black Rebooting Several Times Every Day
Update: I received my new BBB - a CurcuitCo version from Adafruit on Tuesday. On Wednesday I got it set up almost identical to the other one I sent back. It has 3.14.17-bone8 kernel. It rebooted/reset on Thursday at 2:15am and the physical ethernet port was down, so I had to connect via the USB port to look at syslog and see what happened. There is no entry for reboot or shutdown so it looks like a complete reset is taking place. Logs show ethernet port not coming up and dhcpclient says network unreachable I did a power down and restart and it ran fine until Friday morning and reset twice at 7:35am and almost immediately again at 7:50am. Both times it looks like during the boot sequence that network services are starting after ntpd as ntpd can't resolve hosts. dhcpclient can't find the network and retries about a half dozen times then the ethernet port finally comes up and it's back online. This is physically plugged into the same hub that my RasPi is plugged into (and has been running non-stop for over two weeks now, no issues with it whatsoever). I certainly can't use this BBB as a print and weather data server with it behaving this way so I'll keep these running on the RasPi until I can figure out why this is resetting constantly. Using a 5v 2a power supply and I've tried two different ones with the other BBB so I don't think it's a PS issue, but that doesn't leave much else to blame for random resets. Ideas and suggestions welcome. -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups BeagleBoard group.

Hi Robert, I just checked around and a Debug Cable (34M8872 FTDI TTL-232R-3V3) is $42 on eBay. I don't mind spending some time troubleshooting this but not willing to go out and invest in pieces and parts.

Re: [beagleboard] Beaglebone Black Rebooting Several Times Every Day
Robert, I think part of the reason ntp and dhcpclient aren't getting network connections at boot is because they are set at S03 in init and wicd is set at S06 and is last to get going. It appears that eth0 is not coming up until wicd loads? Also, the install-me.sh failed at the end with final zImage copy because it creates backups of everything and /boot (92Mb) runs out of space. I had to manually remove previous image files from /boot and /boot/uboot then run the script so it had room to install everything. Seems /boot partition is too small. -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups BeagleBoard group.

Re: [beagleboard] Beaglebone Black Rebooting Several Times Every Day
Robert, I discovered the /etc/network/interfaces issue snooping around and just set eth0 to auto load there and my total boot time is now 7s instead of 12s with all the ntp and dhcpclient retries gone. So I guess if using the install-me script, I'll have to manually remove the previous kernel files in /boot and /boot/uboot before running it so there's room. Does the .deb file install (apt-get install) also do backups? If so, it should fail as well. Looks like about 110Mb for /boot partition should be enough to hold current and backups of previous. I'm getting a ton of these in syslog at boot: kernel: [ xx.xx] unwind: Index not found bf0f4334 Also, I noticed that in a reboot it keeps the current time for all syslog boot messages, so I know it's getting a full reset randomly because the time in syslog is from /etc/timestamp (which I update every 15 minutes so I can tell when it's resetting).

Re: [beagleboard] Beaglebone Black Rebooting Several Times Every Day
Hi Robert, I reflashed the original distro and it ran for about a half hour and rebooted so I have determined it is a hardware issue, (probably a grounding problem according to the vendor so perhaps there is a QC issue at element14) so I have returned the element14 BBB to the vendor for a refund and ordered a CircuitCo BBB from Adafruit. Will arrive Monday so will have it up and running on Tuesday. I plan to upgrade the kernel to 3.14.17-bone8 which is close to what you recommended for stability and long term support. I can give the 2014-09-13 image a try before kernel upgrade if you need me to test but it will be on a new BBB and not the 'problem child'. Thanks for all you hard work, makes maintaining a BBB pretty painless.

Re: [beagleboard] Beaglebone Black Rebooting Several Times Every Day
Robert, I just looked at the kernel in this image (3.8.13-bone64) and that was the first image I flashed after receiving the BBB. I had USB hot plug issues with that kernel version so I upgraded to 3.16.0. It would not recognize an external USB Hub plugged in after startup, only when plugged in at power up and would not recognize any USB devices hot plugged into the Hub. Not a problem with 3.14, 3.15, 3.16 when I was testing.

Maybe check your power plug. There are many plugs that fit the socket on a BBB, but some do not provide a reliable connection.

Instead of rebooting 10 to 12 times it only rebooted 3 times in syslog, at 6:24pm and 11:06pm and 12:03am. Still random reboots though with nothing in USB and sitting idle.

Since I have removed all external attachments and USB is idle, I have to assume it's either a board hardware issue or the 3.16 kernel as reboot times are random and I don't have anything in cron.hourly. In 3.16 leds have been renamed to heartbeat, mmc0, usr2, usr3. I have heartbeat turned off. PSTREE not installed and apparently not a .deb dist either.

Have a look if there is a file called 'eMMC-flasher.txt' in the root of your SD card it will start flashing on each reboot and reboots again. If that doesn't solve it I would suggest overwrite the following commands with a bash script that logs the output of a PSTREE to a logfile. - halt - shutdown - reboot That will allow you to see what is triggering it.

Re: [beagleboard] Beaglebone Black Rebooting Several Times Every Day
I have downgraded the kernel from 3.16.0-bone2 to 3.15.10-bone8 and so far no reboots in the last 3 hours. If I get a full 24 hr cycle without reboots, I'll blame it on 3.16.0 and try to re-attach ext USB HUB, weather data logger, printer, and enable cups and weewx and see how far I get this time. -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups BeagleBoard group.

Thanks for the report, please let us know how v3.15.x react's too.. I'm currently chasing a few other issues with v3.16.x (acpi isn't working) btw, if you want something that's going to be a lot more supported/tested down the road. sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install linux-image-3.14.17-ti-r15 We are preping for a big transition. http://elinux.org/Beagleboard:Capes_3.8_to_3.14 Regards, -- Robert Nelson http://www.rcn-ee.com/ -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups BeagleBoard group.

[beagleboard] Beaglebone Black Rebooting Several Times Every Day
Got my first BBB last week, installed latest Debian. USB Hot Plug was completely hosed in Kernel 3.8 so I upgraded to 3.16 (latest non-rc version). Currently running CUPS print services (including Airprint) and weewx. It appears that the BBB is rebooting three or four times between 10pm and 1am, this has happened the last two days. I discovered it because weewx was going into an ftp loop because the system clock time was getting whacked (it is time/date sensitive to process weather data). Nothing in the log files unusual. Powered with a 5v 2a supply. Ethernet cable attached and external USB Hub (has external power but not used) with printer (turned off) and Weather Data Logger attached (has it's own power). Before I start experimenting with removing USB Hub, plugging in just Weather Data Logger, etc. thought I'd check here first. -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups BeagleBoard group.

If you have a serial interface, I suggest turn on logging and post the results here. On 09/02/2014 06:44 AM, Greg Kelley wrote: Got my first BBB last week, installed latest Debian.
