I have just spent the better part of the night trying to copy a 37k
firmware.bin file to an sd card. file generated on a bananapi-m5 but
getting no perms responses.
I copyed the file to my /home/gene partition, mkdir .local/sdb1 (which
is what dmesg calls it when the 32G micro-sd in inserted into the card
reader) Spent 20 minutes verifying I owned the whole path, chowned the
file to me, then finally was able copy it to the micro0-sd. unmounted
the card and took it to the printer. Printer didn't take it, still has
marlin firmware in it. Shut it of, bring card back to reader and its
blanked!!! The file should not be erased, but to prevent loops, s/b
upper-cased to indicate its been read. 2 reboots later the printer card
still idents as running marlin, not klipper.
Something is fubar someplace as even sudo has very low success at fixing
this. And I did the bookworm kernel update along with 122 other files
and rebooted about 21:00 last before starting this. uname -a confirms it
gene@coyote:~$ uname -a
Linux coyote 6.1.0-27-rt-amd64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_RT Debian 6.1.115-1
(2024-11-01) x86_64 GNU/Linux
Whats wrong?
Cheers, Gene Heskett, CET.
