1.1 KiB

This describes the story of trying to get the Pi to shutdown and reboot using a single power-button

Findings:

  • gpio-shutdown interferes with I2C pin, we need to either move gpio-shutdown or i2c to different pins
  • GLOBAL_EN does not seem to be useful to send a halt signal, shorting it to ground is equivalent to disconnecting the power (somehow) and thus will allow it to boot up, and hard-reset but thats it

Things modded:

  • Installed the rpi-eeprom package documentation from Rpi themselves here
     rpi-eeprom-config
    
     To edit it and apply the updates to latest EEPROM release:
     sudo -E rpi-eeprom-config --edit```
