    Great! The USB stick died that had the OS installed for my ARM server. I bought a new stick but I don't like that I have to reconfigure everything again

      @broniebrown What type of server is it?

        @soren A long time ago I bought a "Pogoplug POGO-E02" for a low price. It's an ARMv5 with 1.2GHz and 256MB RAM. Originally it has an awful webinterface to set up a "cloud" and it used a login method over the producer's website. Instead I installed Arch Linux on that because it's the only distribution that works.

          @broniebrown Does it have a better type of storage for your OS? Even a micro SD card would probably be better...

            @soren The device has only USB ports so a USB stick is the best I can use here.

              @broniebrown Ah... Well, good luck. Might want to keep a backup in the future.

                @soren I can still access most of the files of the broken usb stick but at certain points it craps out I/O errors. Even if I lost everything it wouldn't matter so much. Only some config files were gone that I care about.

                  @broniebrown You're running a disk check on it right?
