I did a NAND flash and HDD restore, the flash worked fine but the HDD restore comes up with a bad sector ... How do I recover from this?
Help Appreciated! -Kevin |

Now checking HDD1.... fsck.ext3: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/hdc1 /dev/hd1c: superblock could not be read or does not describe correct ext2 filesystem. Now checking HDD2... fsck.ext3: invalid argument while trying to open /dev/hdc2 superblock could not be read or does not describe correct ext2 filesystem. Now checking HDD3 mount: mounting /dev/hdc3 on /hdd3 failed: Invalid Argument Format Error! File system errors left uncorrected. So now what? |

What did you do before the NAND restore?
Does your Zaurus boot up properly? Did you try sudo fdisk -l to check what file system is on the HD partitions? Maybe you can try re-partitioning / formatting and then fsck again? |

need to goto single user mode then get the contents for your hdd from a post in the forums here "HDD1 Contents" then follow the instructions in the file, cant remember if its a zip or tarball. I had the same issue, its a booger to fix but its fixable. DONT DO A NAND RESTORE. This is not needed.
i think single user mode is d+b power on. |

Well let's see, I attempted OpenBSD which didn't work out and then OpenZaurus which didn't quite make it, then I did the NAND flash restore which seemed to work fine then did HDD restore which came up with a sector error yet when I test the HDD it works fine. When booting the Zaurus it says: HDD1 Error!! |

OKAY... I got the Zaurus back up and running with the HDD1 restore file from www.xlfag.com/zaurus/
Only problem is I'm in japanese now... I know there's a MCCONVERT pkg, but the above-mentioned website says I can download a file from trisoft and use that. Well, I put the file on my CF card under the Backup_Files folder.. tried to do the restore on the settings menu and it came up with a dialog (probably error since just had an ok button) and did nothing. All I need is what to do to put the english on and I'm set... so what do I do? |
