Re: Marlin 1.1.9 - SD Card not working after update

Hi!

The SDCard slot stopped working after I flashed the firmware to Marlin 1.1.9 and _before_ I even connected the BL Touch. Now it is connected, tho, according to the readme in "~\Marlin-1.1.x\Marlin\example_configurations\Geeetech\Prusa i3 Pro B":

readme.md
Unlike suggested in geeetech.com/wiki/index.php/3DTouch_Auto_Leveling_Sensor, the existing end stop switch is expected to be kept connected to Z_MIN. So, the sensor is to be connected to Z_MAX, according to Marlin's default settings. Furthermore, GT2560-A+ provides a connector for the servo next to thermistor connectors (see GT2560 and GT2560-A+).

All the changes are mechanical of nature (Z-axis bearings and the likes) and there are no modifications on the mainboard. I had an additional fan connected but removed that to install the BLTouch.

For Marlin, I just rememberd I probably enabled "#define XY_SKEW_FACTOR 0.0" as per instructions in the readme.md file... but since I'm now supposed to print a calibration square I assume that should not disable the SDCard slot.

Edit:
I just remember someone once mentioned to me that compiling and uploading from the latest Arduino IDE does not really work even tho not throwing errors; Should I probably use an older Arduino IDE like 1.0.1?

Edit2:
Nevermind, Marlin 1.1.9 requires way newer IDE and cpp :)

Edit3:
Partial success! I've connected with repetier host and sent "M21" and voilá, content of the card is shown and I can now print from it. So it appears that only the "auto init" of the SDCard is not done when the printer is turned on. Anyone a clue how to get the SDCard init to work at boot again? :)
