flashing the oct 2017 image to a new sd card
while the image is downloading i’m wondering what folders/mount points are on the write enable partition?
i’m going to add a speedtest script and that saves to a spreadsheet hence the need that it outputs to a place that is write enabled all the time
might be able to answer this one myself as i did not do a good enough search
/dev/mmcblk0p3 /home/pi/data ext2 defaults,rw,noatime,nodiratime,errors=remount-ro 0 2
so i should just save in a new folder under /home/pi/data
is that correct?
Yes, that is the standard “always read-write” mount point.
that worked fine
but while i’m at it i might as well update i thought
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
but i get connection errors
