Title: 5600 Lock-up on reboot
Post by: prun769 on September 13, 2004, 10:52:57 pm

My 5600 is locking up on reboot.  It just sits at the "INIT: version 2.78 booting" prompt.

I am running the Sharp 1.32 kernel with the cache patch.  A few days ago a had a note on the machine saying my internal flash had become fragmented, and did I want to repair it.  Foolishly, I clicked yes.

I have tried re-flashing the ROM back, and even the vanilla Sharp 1.32 ROM, but no dice.  I'd hate to have to format the internal flash, as I will lose some stuff.

Any advice?

I just went ahead and formatted the internal flash, and that fixed it - at the loss of my data.

I don't know if this problem was related to the patched 5600 ROM at all.
