nvme pcie file
January 9, 2024, 18:50
Recently bought raspberry pi 5 connected the pcie cable to the nvme bottom from pimeroni and it says on their website I need to add the line dtparam=pciex1_gen=3 to the config.txt but when I do it says failed to save too many levels of symbolic links please can somebody help me ??
Which editor did you use?
Nano editor
I tried to use pi imager to put the boot drive as my nvme but it didn't show up as a device I can format
The nvme has the PCIe connector in
It also has a 5v wire but I didn't think that would be needed to have it work
Just thought that was for the LEDs on the board
Ctrl + o
Ctrl + x
Yeah
Is your issue that when you type the command sudo nano /boot/config.txt and then add the line dtparam=pciex1_gen=3 and save and exit the file you get messages about symbolic links? If that is the case you have probably a faulty and corrupt SD-card.
make sure you have the sudo though
sudo or no sudo shouldn't give the message failed to save too many levels of symbolic links
Are you sure it's " dtparam=pciex1_gen=3 "
just makeing sure, I've had similar errors without sudo so I thought it could be that
It was a fresh one from raspberry pi 5 so idk if it would be broken
I could try and buy a new micro SD card
