Hello, Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but I am still having this issue with most if not all of the newer E310's I've ordered. These devices have the updated firmware for the axi_pmu device.
I write 1 to the "autoboot" file using the following command: echo 1 > /sys/devices/axi_pmu.3/autoboot And I check it just to make sure: cat /sys/devices/axi_pmu.3/autoboot and it shows "1". After a random number of power cycles, the device will not power back on when power is applied. When I boot it manually with the power button, I can check the "autoboot" value: cat /sys/devices/axi_pmu.3/autoboot And it has returned to "0" Does anyone know what could be causing this?
