Title: Avalon 6 -Raspberry pi won't boot correctly Post by: HerbPean on April 19, 2017, 02:31:15 PM Hey guys,
I have two Raspberry pi for my Avalon 6 they are the first model sold with them. They both act very strangely. I cannot make them boot up correct if I doesn't unplug the ethernet cable and the USB cable for the dongle. If I wait until the initialization is done, I plug the Ethernet and the USB dongle and it works for like 15 minutes then it crashes again. Both pi are doing the same thing. I had like 14 days uptime before this happen. Any idea ? Corrupted SD ? Locking this ... it seems a new power adapter did the trick. Thanks Title: Re: Avalon 6 -Raspberry pi won't boot correctly Post by: NiHaoMike on April 19, 2017, 02:47:58 PM Try replacing the PSU. Raspberry Pi is very picky about what PSU and USB cable you use. I suggest a name brand unit like Anker or Innergie (Delta) for something that is affordable but good quality. Make sure it can supply at least 2A.

Yeah I tried that, I use the samsung they sent me with the original pie. Also tried many cables. I will try to get something more powerfull then 2 A EDIT: Thanks Title: Re: Avalon 6 -Raspberry pi won't boot correctly Post by: fanatic26 on April 19, 2017, 03:39:01 PM I have had those power bricks fail over time. I have had two of them literally blow up and blast the top off of the plastic shell. I would replace those power bricks even if they seem to be working. Once they start to heat up they dont put out enough power anymore and crash the RPi.
