Can the Activity LED be enabled under Manjaro? - Cralex - 01-06-2021

Hello Pine64 community,
I recently booted MrFixit's Debian image off of sd, and I noticed that the Power LED was able to blink to indicate disk activity. I have Manjaro XFCE installed on my emmc, and I'm curious to know if there's any way to enable this feature there too. Thanks.

In the kernel config : Devices --> LED Support --> LED Trigger Support

Or in userland, as root :
echo mmc0 > /sys/devices/platform/leds/leds/green\:power/trigger

you can also control the red led, the one on the side of the barrel power input.

This config is lost after reboot, you'll have to add it to a script that is run on startup to be persistent.
