I had to restore....
First solution (Will erase all data):
1) Remove the battery cover and press the reset switch.
2) Replace the battery cover.
3) Hold the OK button and power on the unit.
4) Plug in the unit.
5) Select the third option in the menu.
6) Select the first option in the second menu.
7) Wait (May take longer then 5 minutes).
System will then boot in Japanese. Dynamism customers should email c700support@dynamism.com to obtain further instructions for their units.
Now i've booted it into the gui (in japanese) and i have no Konsole....
how may i get a shell console so i can su and reconv to get it back to normal?

there should be a Terminal on the CD or just install [a href=\"http://www.elsix.org/index.php?w=project&p=1108]Qkonsole[/url]

There's also a hidden boot to command-line option on the SL-C3000.
It can be a little tricky to access, but here's the steps:
1 - Flip the battery lock switch to the unlock/open (right) position.
2 - Open the battery cover and remove the battery.
3 - Wait approximately 1 minute (sometimes up to an hour)
4 - Press and hold down both the "D" and the "B" keys.
5 - Carefully re-insert the battery while continuing to hold down the D/B keys.
6 - Replace the battery cover and set the switch to lock (left) position (still holding keys).
7 - Continue to hold down the D/B keys and press the power switch.
You should see the standard Sharp splash screen, followed by the linux boot messages.
The following mount points from ChrisZ (https://www.oesf.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=11915&view=findpost&p=74899) may also prove helpful:
/etc is linked from /home: /home/etc -> /etc
/home is mounted from /dev/mtdblock3 type jffs2 (rw, noatime)
/ is mounted from /dev/mtdblock2 type jffs2 (ro, noatime)
...Hope this helps!
