Debugging Reentrant VIs

  • LabVIEW debugging tools are not available for copies of reentrant VIs executing on RT targets. Because LabVIEW identifies copies of reentrant VIs by their front panels and VIs executing on RT targets do not include front panels, LabVIEW cannot open reentrant VI copies for debugging.

FAT Partition Not Properly Unmounted

The kernel warning FAT-fs (nvme0n1p1): Volume was not properly unmounted usually indicates that the FAT boot partition was not cleanly unmounted, for example after a power loss. It does not normally require reformatting the disk. Unmount the partition, repair it, verify the result, and mount it again:

umount /dev/nvme0n1p1
fsck.fat -a /dev/nvme0n1p1
fsck.fat -n /dev/nvme0n1p1
mount /dev/nvme0n1p1 /media/nvme0n1p1

After a clean reboot, the warning should no longer appear in the kernel log.
