Lots of corruption/dirty
After not touching my Vcore 3.1 500 for a while, it now looks like this. Does this look like an SD card issue or something else? There is a very small chance the Pi got knocked by something, but it's impossible to know.

yeah, unless you have been updating or mucking around with those files it looks like a bad sd card
save what you need quickly, and get a new SD card and do a new install of RatOS

Shit. OK.
Thanks
you do a clean shutdown right? Clicking in the mainsail interface and selecting shutdown
robust-apricot•7mo ago
Yeah. Then I wait until Pi yellow light goes off. Then power cycle
ok. What brand SD card? How old is it?

Gigastone Camera Plus
I think it came with the kit?
Dont have a spare SD so Im reflashing RatOS to the same one hoping it's a temporary corruption
never heard of that brand - get something good like sandisk or samsung

Same...
there is no such thing as "temporary" corruption

Ugh
SD cards have a limited number of reads/writes

Flash failed...
Makes sense, I guess
once it is worn it, that's it
robust-apricot•7mo ago
Why would this have happened on an idle printer...
usually SD cards fail so that they become read only, but may not always work

flash storage - they describe as keeping the state by trapping a air bubble inside of a jar of honey... It is complex and amazing it works at all

@blacksmithforlife Think I'll need to reflash klipper to the mainboard?
Rat-OS should handle that automatically for you since you flashed it using the configurator and it knows how to update it if needed

Hope so, thanks
@blacksmithforlife Up and running, it seems. Thanks a ton

Note for the future: You can use a USB stick instead of an SD card if that makes it easier 🙂
