Both happened during syncing largish repository. (corrupted = permanent input/output error) - -* Put git annex on my android phone with a 64GB (FAT) micro SD, fired up git annex, it got reported as corrupted half on hour later, reformatting worked but got reported as corrupted again. - -* Put git annex assistant on my raspberry pi, one of the thumbdrives in my LVM (ext4) got corrupted shortly after I began using the assistant. I replaced them with a cheap real SSD drive, and had no problem since. - -* Put git annex back on my android phone. Kept it going for an extended sync session, but it never started syncing. I kept it going for an hour or so, and my new 32GB microSD (FAT) got corrupted. - -The pattern is nothing like proof, but it seems to be too regular to be completely coincidental. The pattern seems to be: ARM + (SDcard|USBstick) + Assistant = drive corruption. - -My guess is that the ARM build might have some kind of unlucky write pattern or loop that causes increased wear, but I know very little of the interna. - -### What steps will reproduce the problem? - -* Get a raspberry pi and a USB stick, or an android phone and a microSD card -* Get an [ARM build of the assistant](https://github.com/tradloff/git-annex-RPi) -* Sync a largish (12GB) repository - -### What version of git-annex are you using?
