Modified some optimization and more additions

Added the nodiratime parameter to the fstab file for stopping also writing to the disk the last access time for the directories and not only the files, this will save more SD writes and thus extends their life and save more power. (see point 7)

Added some fine tuning to the caching system to minimize disk writes. (see point 18)

For people willing to understand what they are doing, i found a great article explaining the swapiness here

I have successfully upgraded the kernel to 4.9.53 from 4.9.35 and updated the Raspberry Pi Zero W firmware.
Everything is working fine. To achieve that,
Normally it's already installed and you should see a message telling then you are good to go upgrading the kernel and the firmware with this command
It will take something like 10 minutes to terminate (download, check, backup, write, check, exit)
You will need to reboot to apply changes.

Putting the battery

I finally received my 3D printed parts and... i am really disappointed
The quality is realy far from what i was used to get with the hub i’m used to deal with...

I had to dremel many part except the pogo pin holder. This one was perfect, the connector sat on it as if it was designed for him i had to force a bit and the pogo pins was able to stand alone on top of the support.

Here are some pictures
Now the bad news...
I’m having difficulties to make contact with the pogo pins. The problem is the tight grinding i’ve made to the battery tray. I cannot push down the battery to make contact with the pogo pins. The problem is that with my design, the pogo pins are staying up to the battery cover but this is the reverse bending way of the pins... i have destroyed 2 connectors by forcing the battery down. As the pins didn’t bent (because they bent pushed the other side) they got flattened

I have to flip the pogo pins upside down but the connector won’t sit anymore flush (flat plastic against flat plastic) so i may end using some sugru maybe to clay down the conector to the support. Really weird. Stupid me, i didn’t take this in consideration while designing the support.

Those who wants to whip me can

Never mind, i’ll find a solution.

The good news is that i finally got my build playable without a power cord

This is the real freedom
