Laughing Man, I'm replying just 'cause I figure it's lonely, in the midst of the frustration, to post twice over that long a period and not get a response. But I don't know what is wrong, and, as we see, nobody else has offered any ideas either. I can't even tell if your problem arises from the initfs install (in the device) or from the cloning (on the MMC). You won't like this, but all I can suggest is starting from scratch, including the low-level format, doing every step, and reporting here as soon as something doesn't match what's expected.

No this wasnt the case with me if you actually read my post you'd see I DID IN FACT LLF with the panasonic tool and another LLF tool I use. I also tried 4 DIFFERENT SD media read/writers (SD and SDHC units) and over 12 different attempts making sure I didnt miss or screw up anything
The PQI 8gb SDHC is just not working at this time. I've tried 2 other cards now a 2gb PQI 60x, and a 16gb Patriot (which I wish was minecause it def boots fast vs 2gb)

I've tried using your instructions for sfdisk formating as well. It leads to the same problem (booting from mmc will not work anymore). It just stays stuck on the Nokia screen with the blue bar loaded. After a while it reboots and I'm back at the boot menu.
Is there any alternative to low level formating? (don't have access to an SDHC reader).
Edit: I'm going try the directions in your blog Schmot's.
Edit: Same exact problem (I reflashed my tablet and redid everything following your blog post)
I'm beginning to think it's my SDHC card. -_- *sighs* (It's an A-Data 4 GB class 6 SDHC card).
Reading around it seems that it does require a low level format (possibly why it only worked the first time so it needs another one?). So maybe I need to go find an SDHC card reader..
Edit: (this is probably getting annoying now huh..? I apologize if so). Apparantly you can format your SDHC cards with the Panasonic formatter if you just leave them in the tablet and connect the tablet to PC. Off to try again now.
Edit: And it still doesn't work (even gave me the memory is corrupted error like it did the first time I was doing it like the guide stated when it worked.). *sighs*
I could try using my 16 GB card.. but I had originally intended on using my 4 GB for the OS and my 16 GB for external so I could always be loading data into it without much trouble.

...But I could do #4 if it still refuses to work, it would depend on if you lived in the States or not. Though I think at this point I might just cut my losses and try installing the OS onto my 16 GB card.

Options:
1) Give up and sit at the corner and cry.
2) Somehow get access to a SDHC writer, via neighbors or your working place and perform a LLF
3) Return the card, it is defective, sometimes after many formatting, the card can be ruined for good. They do advertise lifetime waranty though. According to my list, Adata 4 G turbo does not require LLF. Yours is 4G class 6.
4) Send me the card, I will LLF for you and if you wish, will clone the OS for you. No, this is NOT a paid service. It is me helping you, not going to cost you anything. You do have to take the risk the card may get mail lost or whatever. Conditions: I would not be held liable if card mail lost, mail damage, mail this mail that. You do have my word, I will treat it with utmost care.
Hope this helps,
bun

If this is possible is it possible to get an image and clone the image to a card (using a media reader) from a PC? Windoze or Linux?
