Re: memory corrupt

Working on a solution, just some more testing here. Will be back in an hour, hopefully.

Re: memory corrupt

Hope this will work:
To simulate your situation i just zero'ed the first sector of my external card to reproduce the error message, then copied the backup sector of the filesystem to the first sector. This made a filesystem check possible and all of my data readable again.

Code:

dd if=/dev/mmcblk0p1 of=/dev/mmcblk0p1 bs=512 count=1 skip=6

fsck -f /dev/mmcblk0p1

mount /home/user/MyDocs

Re: memory corrupt

okay . so should i enter an external memory card ??

Re: memory corrupt

i pasted ur code . before i enter a memory card .

now when ever i enter
sudo getroot
it says : password : and i cant write anything else

wt should i do ?

Re: memory corrupt

correct one is "sudo gainroot" not "sudo getroot"

Re: memory corrupt

No external card necessary that was just available here for testing and as freemangordon correctly notes:

Code:

sudo gainroot
