My changes disappeared
piCorePlayer uses piCore which is predominately a RAM based system, so nearly everything is stored in RAM. If you modify or add files it is highly likely that you are doing the changes in RAM. So after a reboot your changes may disappear.
To make changes persistent you need to do one of the following:
- add/modify files in your
/home/tc
or/opt
directories, then do a backup—see piCorePlayer backup. Thehome
andopt
directories are already included in/opt/.filetool.lst
so they get included in a backup. - add/modify files, then edit
/opt/.filetool.lst
to include these files, then do a backup—see piCorePlayer backup. - add files directly on the
root
partition of your storage device (ie./mnt/mmcblk0p2
). - add files directly on the
boot
partition of your storage device (ie./mnt/mmcblk0p1
).
Warning
The boot partition is used during the boot process and by default is normally unmounted.
