before you flash connect it to a windows pc and choose scan and fix option, and tick search for bad sectors

checking the file system like michaaaaa said earlier will most likely fix it, if not you need to flash the mmc
THIS is correct ...... why all the babble on here, just flash emmc and be done with it... end of story.

If you just have worthless trash on your internal memory do as abill_uk suggests or even simplier reformat the partition from Hildon File Manager (HFM).

If you want to save your valuable stuff, which i assume you are trying to do, correct you mounting command. The error message suggests that you put in a space between /home/user and /MyDocs. This might be due to poor readability of this site's fonts.
The mount point of /dev/mmcblk0p1 is /home/user/MyDocs. Try again the last command of the code block above, may be with copy and paste, this tome without the space in the directory to mount the partition to.

i wont argue with u on re-flash will solve the problem but please look carefully at his pic...look at the size of the folder & the date...it all the same...now if you said the problem is cause by forced reboot/unmount then why all files are the same size??? unreadable partitions wont have give all files the same size....

need to know this is not a phone virus but a windows virus...as u connect your phone as a mass storage (same as u connect your thumbdrive) it will infect your phone....
now let said that the virus is true...re-flash your phone then when you connect your phone again using the pc that have the virus wont it affect his phone again??? how many time he has to re-flash his phone just to makes this thing go away????

don't tell it a CRAP thing cause this thing you so called CRAP can happen....
atleast i give him a few reason why this thing could happen & a solutions to fixed it not just telling him that what other people said is CRAP JUST LIKE YOU!!!

You obviously dont realise a virus in Windows is not the same effect in Linux, it will have no effect whatsoever and i tell you what... prove you can even get a virus to work within the OS of the N900 OK !!!.

Ya talking CRAP.

you forget about one thing...as you connect you N900 as a mass storage your phone will open the internal memory & MicroSD as an external driver...as an external driver any virus can effect it...
now did i said it effected his OS????
no....the only thing that effected is his internal memory that he has connected as a mass storage....even dhanurdhar said yes there is a virus when he scan it with other pc...now tell me how come a virus can spread to his internal memory when you said a virus didn't effect whatsoever????

hmmm...after dhanurdhar has fixed his problem then we can see who right or wrong on this....

All the files in the screenshot are the same size because they should all be folders. Filesystem corruption can cause this to happen so if you want to be able to recover the data this is what you should check for first, if you don't care about the data just format it. It could also be caused by a virus, so if not formating the partition it would be wise to check with a good virus scanner or two to be safe.

Why do people want to prolong the agony is my questiion, this problem will not go away easy and the hours or days needed to try solve the problem when 5 minutes flashing puts the device back to working state.

Virus or no virus it will not be an easy task in any way or form trying to put back together corrupt data so why all the time consuming idea's? he for one is not competent enough to know what to do but can flash is well within his capability.

Time is money normally and if this is the way people try to help then he better have a few weeks holiday to sort out an otherwise simple problem.

Is no wonder Maemo is in the state it is in if this is all that is available on this forum !!!.
