I ugraded 2 das ago from v142 to v143 and i noticed the red led on my orange PI that blinks twice, repeatedly, is it bad news ?
I didn't notice this behavior previously, that's why I think it is strange. After installation of dietpi on my orange pi , I verified that o had the v142 installed and the red led didn't blinked.
I also have to mention that I had samba working (on v142, before I wiped the SD out and. Fresh install, followed by NFS share, then formated the HDD I have it running with to ext4 partition and then I didn't knew how to working around things to configure it properly, so I changed it to proftp).
After that, it became inconvenient to have it that way, and I changed it to samba, and I cannot inderstand why I don't get neither my android phone or my PC to connect it to the samba share .
I read about sharing a ext4 through samba, and it it supposed to work, at least from what I read on Ubuntu forums.
red LED blinking twice repeatedly after upgrade Topic is solved
Re: red LED blinking twice repeatedly after upgrade
Yes, the heartbeat-like red led blinking was added to all boards with the H3 chip on board in V143syl3nt wrote:I ugraded 2 das ago from v142 to v143 and i noticed the red led on my orange PI that blinks twice, repeatedly, is it bad news ?

Yes it should work, but have you set it up properly?I also have to mention that I had samba working (on v142, before I wiped the SD out and.

These are the commands we use to activate it:
Code: Select all
echo -e "heartbeat" > /sys/class/leds/*red*/trigger & #OPi one
echo -e "heartbeat" > /sys/class/leds/*blue*/trigger & #NanoPi M1
Code: Select all
cat /sys/class/leds/*red*/trigger
cat /sys/class/leds/*blue*/trigger
Code: Select all
echo -e "none" > /sys/class/leds/*red*/trigger
echo -e "none" > /sys/class/leds/*blue*/trigger

Re: red LED blinking twice repeatedly after upgrade
so.. my orange pi keeps forgetting the configuration i chose after each reboot .. anyone gets this behaviour as well ?
my configuration is : green LED off, and the red one with heartbeat.
after the reboot, the green LED is on all times, and the red , starts blinking normally

Re: red LED blinking twice repeatedly after upgrade
Is this OrangePi PC?[/quote]
Yes
please , keep in mind that this is the result of cat, without me rebooting the unit and therefore, the results could be different after me rebooting (aka when the green led forgets that it should be off)
[edit]
ok.. , i rebooted, to give also about when it happens, and it is the same output
but i assure you the green led comes on and never goes off as is should be, if you want, i videotape it and mail it to you
