Hi all,

I have a serious N900 issue since yesterday. All of a sudden, I was getting memory problems (i.e. not enough memory to launch a website), missing icons on the desktop, and reboot loops.

I reflashed the OS as well as the eMMC per the instructions in the wiki. That seemed to go well, but when I look at the Settings->Memory, sometimes it would not show the 32Gb on-board memory. I cannot access the web at all due to memory errors, and upon further investigation - /home/opt is missing!

I am at a loss as to what to do. It is acting very strange - almost as if it was drunk. I am fearing the worst - that some sort of hardware problem has manifested itself.

So, my questions:

1. is there any way to restore /home/opt ? I installed rootsh, and tried mkdir /home/opt, for which I get "mkdir: cannot create directrory 'opt': Input/output error"

2. I have reflashed the OS and the eMMC about 10 times - still with the same results. Is there anything that I am overlooking.

3. If the eMMC is corrupt (and sometimes, I got that message when looking at settings->Memory), Can the external card slot be used in lieu of the internal card? Some sort of simlink or something?

Thanks for any help you can provide.
