Can't boot from sd anymore
 

Hey guys.
Two months ago tried to boot from a 8gb kodak sdhc card.
At first eveything went well and the tablet was faster overall.
Then it started crashing randomly, then it coudn't boot once in a while. Yesterday it crashed using bluemaemo and since then, when I try to boot, it just restart and return to the boot menu. When I boot from internal flash the tablet act weird, with some app icons missing and such.

What should I do? :(

Thanks!

Did you backup your SD partition image? If yes, restore it. If not, you should use partimage (available in ubuntu) to backup your SD partition regularly. You can then easily restore the whole partition under this kind of bad scenario.

For now, you can try to check and fix your SD card inside a unix machine (say ubuntu -- partition editor). The file systems might be corrupted. You can then try again booting from the SD.

In the worst case, you got to reflash the unit.

If it were only the SD Card I'd say to run this from root when booted from the Device Memory:

fsck -fy /dev/mmcblk0p2

You could try it anyway.
