I didnât know you can get that, so maybe Iâll use it in a designâŚ
Now under normal circumstances, this wouldnât be an issue. There are literally billions of devices running Linux from an eMMC chip. But any competent embedded Linux developer would take the steps necessary to make sure the operating systemâs various log files are not being written to a non-replaceable storage device soldered onto the board
Unfortunately, for reasons that still remain somewhat unclear, the build of Linux running on the MCU is doing exactly that. Whatâs worse, Teslaâs graphical interface appears to be generating its own additional log messages. Despite the likelihood that nobody will ever actually read them, for every second a Tesla is driving down the road, more lines are being added to the log files.
wow now reading this thatâs so f*cking stupid.
Or, if weâre being honest, why are we using eMMC on a car? Itâs not exactly a rock solid storage solution and does not inspire confidence when used on a vehicle of all things. Use an mSATA SSD or something, at least. The freaking car is 50 grand or more and theyâre too cheap to even have a proper SSD?
idk I wouldnât drive one of those things anyways. I just know where eMMCs can be useful.
I havenât reflowed before so I wouldnât know. I think you are suggesting an SD card instead of a eMMC. That can work and prob wouldnât be more expensive, but thatâs an SPI interface I think so slower than what might be an 8bit interface on the eMMC.
maybe more components should be socketâdâŚ
I want to do a federated Ebay/Alibaba.
