README-BOOTPROBLEM.txt

The Raspberry Pi 3+ version of Raspbian Stretch in combination with the Waveshare
touch-LCD driver can cause boot problems if the Pi was not shut down properly
before switching off power.

IF THIS HAPPENS:
(1) Turn off power, remove SD card from Pi and insert into PC (Win/Mac/Linux)
(2) In the PC-readable partition look for file "config.txt"
    If this file is missing, simply make a copy of file "config-copy.txt"
    in the same partition and rename it "config.txt"
(3) Open file "cmdline.txt" with a text editor and check if there are any non-ASCII
    characters at the end of the file. If so, remove these strange characters and save it.
(4) Properly eject the SD card from your PC, put it back into the Pi, then power it up.

TO PREVENT THIS:
Alway shut down the Raspberry Pi properly.
(1)  (a) From RoBIOS press: System / Admin / Shutdown 
         (= red / red / red  = 3 x left button)
  or (b) from Linux menu select: Raspi-Symbol / Shutdown
(2)  Turn off power
