"Timeout waiting for hardware interrupt"-not loading!

Wed Apr 09, 2014 11:05 am

Right, so after a year behind my desktop computer I have dusted off my pi and got it to boot and output to a monitor. :)
Unfortunately, when I logged it off, I closed lxde, then typed "shutdown" into the command line thingy. Using, what it said, I typed in sudo shutdown, then sudo shutdown now. It then went from pi@rasperry.something (with something being something). Now the pi will not load.
What I mean is that in the command line, it says
[ 409.622125] mmc0: Timeout waiting for hardware interrupt - cmd5.
And so on, with different numbers.
Occasionally, it will spout a lot of text into the log and say that something is disabled for five minutes. Any help?

I managed to fix it by removing the power cable and plugging it back in. Any help for properly logging it off?

Use "sudo poweroff" and wait till the "act" LED stops flashing.
But from your description your SD-Card barfed while shutting down.

And it now says somewhere that the card's corrupted.
And it loads to kdb, freezes, and the ACT light never comes on. :(

Well, then it's probably time to reflash the SDcard, or if you have access to another linux box and an SD-cardreader you could try to repair the filesystem on your corrupted card, or at least copy any data you still need from it.

Would a laptop running Ubuntu 12.04 count as a linux box?

I'm having the same issue. Also not a linux guru. I do have an kubuntu laptop with card reader though. What tool would I use to try to repair the file system?

I don't know if there's a way to do it via the gui but in the shell you use "fsck"
