Hello community,
I have tweaked an external drive (Seagate GoFlex Home) installing archlinux for not to be subjected to the file size constraints of the GUI.
I followed the instructions in
http://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/armv5 … oflex-home and all looks to be fine.
The issue is that, after 2 or 3 hours transferring data, the unit apparently restarts itself. The last message before it is a remounting of the main storage partition. I have been investigating the issue but my kernel knowledge is quite limited. Does anybody have any ideas?. I attach an excerpt of the message.log and the sysctl.d/50-default.conf.
Many thanks in advance.
