The truths that the SDs give quite a few problems.
I now have raspbian + xbmc + retroArch and sometimes when loading retroArch it gives me an error and I think I will have to leave only the boot system on the SD and the rest on a hard drive
But for now happy, it offers quite a lot as a multimedia center and classic games.
Greetings!!

What classic games have you installed?, emulators perhaps? It's more curiosity than anything else, because if I did it I would do it on another PC.

Mother of beautiful love. I just checked the SD card and it is so messed up that it is impossible to do anything with it with any partitioning utility for Windows or Linux or any of the most famous (for effective) utilities to restore SD cards.
Pfff, what a frustrating and disappointing debut the Raspi is having as a server for me.
Let me see if I investigate a bit how to solve this because if not...
For now I am already setting up the Atom to take over its function until I find a definitive solution.

Yes, things are messed up, just by looking at it the SD card goes to hell. I've done several tests and if you have to turn it off by force... forget about not having errors.
For now I give up using it for torrents, after all, to have it on for 24 hours every two weeks I can afford to leave the desktop on. I have reinstalled the web server (lighttpd instead of Apache) and let's see if I don't mess with the permissions and I can leave at least one blog online.
The truth is that I am surprised by so many problems, because I have read in many other forums and it is not something generalized although it does happen to quite a few people.

Have you tried installing a different distro?
Is it possible to install everything from the system on an hdd via usb and only leave the boot files on the SD? -
No, I have not tested it with another system, because it is supposed to be the best for general purposes (not multimedia).
Installing everything on the external drive except the boot is easy with this guide:
http://belinuxmyfriend.blogspot.com.es/2012/11/arrancando-la-raspberry-pi-desde-un.html
although personally I had a problem with the part of using expand_rootfs and I had to do it on another computer with Gparted.
For now, as I said, I give up on the torrent issue on the raspberry but I will install the web server and ownCloud, but instead of on an external drive on a pendrive, which seems to be more reliable than the SD card.
-
I have a theory that all this trouble has its root in failures with the RAM. The corruption of data on the SD card is due to the corruption in the information contained in the RAM, so it is quite likely that these problems will end up being transferred to external devices. I have to do some tests about this, but until I can fix the SD card, I won't be able to.

It wouldn't surprise me at all. Today I tried to put the system on a pendrive and when I connected the pendrive, without the changes yet, it wouldn't boot and from there it ended again :mad:.
I think next week I will start the C7 again and leave the Raspberry tests for moments of boredom or holidays.

I had been working on the guide for over a week and finally uploaded the videos yesterday.
This time I published it on an external website: Raspberry Pi Guide
Incidentally, the server is running on a Raspi.
I would have liked to cover many more topics, but it was becoming endless and with the time I had, it's all I could cover.
I hope you find it interesting.
PD: I will improve the presentation over time. I'm sorry it was published in those ways.
What a nice present to return to the forum, thanks for the effort. I'm already eager to dive into one of these! And in the future "marry" it with an Arduino board and build a homemade flux capacitor
BTW, the guide link is offline now. Maintenance on the raspServer? ;D
Best regards!

It's back online, but both Cobito and I are victims of the "SD card-eating Raspberrys". -

So what? Too much I/O? I say this because the other day while looking for documentation to set up a 24x7 BT client on a Raspberry, I came across a comment that strongly advised against P2P programs with the download directory on an SD, because it "stressed" them too much with the ins and outs of data.
-
I don't know why, but the download directory was on an external hard drive and I had even tried moving the entire system except the FAT boot partition to the same drive, but the moment you have problems and have to use the "big button", the SD card's file system gets damaged.
For now, because of this, I've parked the Raspberry and gone back to the C7, which is as stable as can be.

Look what happened… By chance searching for how to install Debian on the Airis Kira N7000 that El País screwed up for me a few years ago (it was supposed to be a gift for my godson) I came across this:
Extend the life of your SD card with debian | Kirbian
Some experiences and tips for systems based on Debian+SSD.
Let's see if it helps to shed some light!
-
It's really not the same case, because it's not that it ruins the SD, the thing is that the file system gets corrupted especially when you turn off the gadget suddenly, having to reinstall everything. Unfortunately in my house it's rare that the lights don't go out once a week or every two weeks, so it would be a torment to have it as a server. That said, it doesn't seem to happen to everyone exactly, but neither are there few people to whom it happens.Thanks anyway ;).
-
Taking advantage of the holidays and not moving from home because they have to bring me the washing machine… I'm back in action.
I've read in some forums that Sandisk brand SD cards usually work very well with the Pi, so I've got one, and I've also tried this slightly tuned Debian:
http://www.linuxsystems.it/2012/06/raspbian-wheezy-armhf-raspberry-pi-minimal-image/So far it's going well, I've even unplugged it treacherously and there have been no defects. We will continue testing.
-
Let's see if you can figure something out with that SD model. I haven't had time to test it yet :nono:

Well, so far it has withstood three or four 'capón' blackouts without any problems. I will keep you updated, because the next test will be to set it up for torrents, but it will struggle to be at the level of the veteran C7, which has already completed two months of uptime. -
Did you know that Fedora has a distro for the RPi, Pidora - Raspberry Pi Fedora Remix? I just saw it, I don't know what it will bring that's special.
