Right, my bad, I assumed it works like any other reset button.

One time i think it was the battery (the 10% battery level bug), the other times probably it was the filesystem because after I unplugged the battery and reconnected it, everything worked fine - probably it fixed the problem when it remounted the vfat partition or when it reloaded the modules.

I'm not mounting its system partition just to avoid corrupting the filesystem. I only mount the sd card. Maybe I should backup whatever I find on its fs and format it.

Does anyone know if there is a way to open a console on the device?
