RPI : a serial SD card killer ?
by Desiderius from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5PCDG)
Yesterday I put a new 32 GB card into an RPI4 and following the "excellent" tutorial of @Exaga, I began to install Slackware ARM on it.
The installation works fine during an hour and at the end, I exit from the Slackware installer to make the post installation work.
At this time I notice a long time before getting the prompt of the shell.
But, when I want to remove the unnecessary kernel files, I get error messages saying the files do not exist; Effectively, the architecture under /mnt has disappeared.
I reboot the PI4 ( by the reboot command ) and try to restart : the PI4 fails to boot !
I get back the SD card : it is very hot !
I try to mount it on a laptop : impossible : many many blocks errors ; the card is broken !
One more ! this is the third or the fourth the RPI has killed !
So is'n it possible to copy the system on the SD card on laptop and put it after on the PI4 ?
I suppose it is the warmness of the PI4 the responsible
