Back at it, y’all. If you recall, I left off in late September by flashing Jonathan’s SD card. I just plugged it in the raspi and nothing happened. I plugged the raspi into the TV and found out that I’m getting a kernel panic error… which is my favorite. I’ll reflash the SD card using the latest backup and hope it works this time.

Did this stuff:

• sudo fdisk -l to make sure I had my drives straight
• sudo gparted and it gave me a bunch of errors about having a partition outside the disk… which leads me to believe I really messed something up during the previous gparted/flash round
• used gparted to fix the disk… had to create a new partition table and everything
• once it was reformatted to one FAT32 partition, I quit gparted and sudo etcher
• chose counter_backup.img from the usb stick to flash onto Jonathan’s SD card

Still having a kernel panic issue on bootup. I’m not sure how to fix this outside of saving a new image and flashing again. I’m going to have to do some googling and try again later.
