Hdd2 Errror After Installing Cacko From Pdaxrom

[bcom75]

Hi to all.
             I had Pdaxrom Beta 2 for C3000 installed with a single 4 GB partition on my C3000's hardrive. Today I proceeded to install Cacko Beta 1 as per instructions. Flashing went fine, however once cacko starts to boot I get stuck on the HDD2 Errror!! with blinking HDD light. I guess the installer did not format the single 4GB back to the stock Sharp partitions. Could anyone shed light on how to come out of the problem?
many thanks!

I guess you will have to restore the partitions to their original state? Of course, you'll need to know what they are.

Trisoft to the rescue! Get SLC3000SYSPART.zip from here: http://trisoft.de/en_c3000howto.htm (about 17MB)

it contains a text file that describes the layout of the SL-C3000 partitions, and a tar file with the default contents of /hdd1

Yes, you need to repartition your HD, if it still complains, in my case  the zaurus was not finding the partitions in the way it expects. I solved the problem in this way:
-- I tried CONTROL+C
In that moment, my zaurus carries on with the boot process
When you have access to a terminal, write:
su
mount -o remount,rw /
edit the file /root/etc/rc.d/rc.rofilesys (I use mc for this).

now look for any HDD2 error message, comment out the ledctl lines and the while loops. I attach mine so you have an example.

Good luck!
