I have had those power bricks fail over time. I have had two of them literally blow up and blast the top off of the plastic shell. I would replace those power bricks even if they seem to be working. Once they start to heat up they dont put out enough power anymore and crash the RPi.

Try replacing the PSU. Raspberry Pi is very picky about what PSU and USB cable you use. I suggest a name brand unit like Anker or Innergie (Delta) for something that is affordable but good quality. Make sure it can supply at least 2A.

Yeah I tried that, I use the samsung they sent me with the original pie.

Also tried many cables.

I will try to get something more powerfull then 2 A

Hey guys,

I have two Raspberry pi for my Avalon 6 they are the first model sold with them.

They both act very strangely. I cannot make them boot up correct if I doesn't unplug the ethernet cable and the USB cable for the dongle.

If I wait until the initialization is done, I plug the Ethernet and the USB dongle and it works for like 15 minutes then it crashes again.

Both pi are doing the same thing.

I had like 14 days uptime before this happen.

Any idea ?

Corrupted SD ?

Locking this ... it seems a new power adapter did the trick.

Thanks
