Very frustrating.
The only thing I can think of is that I am still using virtual memory somehow. How do you make sure you are not using it? The only way I know how is to go into control panel, then memory, then virtual memory tab and then make sure that the "use virtual memory" box is unchecked.
Is there another way to make sure that you have virtual memory off ??
it took me 3 days to figure out the problem , and finally i have solved it

just format your memory card using xterm follow instructions here :

just follow the steps

apt-get install e2fsprogs
umount /media/mmc1
umount /media/mmc2
sfdisk /dev/mmcblk0

/dev/mmcblk0p2:15001,,
