Description
I would very much like to build the mower and help with development, but for me to build it, it needs to be foolproof long-term, as I will be moving out soon, and I don't think my parents have any interest in reinstalling the operating system on their lawn mower.
Raspberry Pis have a history of corrupting the file system on their SD cards, so I'd like to know if there are any mitigations for this, and if not, advocate for their implementation.

Done means choosing and implementing an agreed mitigation and documenting how it prevents or recovers from corruption.
