Banana Pi: Onboard, User-Definable Green Led
As you may have noticed the BPi has a green LED, which starts blinking as soon as the Pi is powered on: i.e. as soon as something happens with the SD card. It is possible to program the behavior of the LED such as switching it off.
To list the available options open a terminal and enter cat /sys/class/leds/green:ph24:led1/trigger. The default value is heartbeat. If you want to permanently switch it off the trigger needs to be set to none.
