My 5500 will not boot anymore...
« on: March 26, 2004, 08:40:33 am »
Help...   My z would not come back from suspend - with or without the power lead...  I did a soft reset (switched to replace battery & back), I did a hard reset, removed battery, and finally removed my sd and CF cards.  Finally, the z started to reboot, with the expected swarm of fsck errors.

  The situation is that now it starts to boot, modprobe reports that it can\'t locate devinfo and that is it... I get 9 iterations of the 5 second countdown then \'INIT: Id \"ln\" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes\' but nothing else....

I have tried with and without the sd card in - I have manually moved Applications to the sd, but nothing else, as I am still running Protos 1.0RC4 ROM.

Any help would be very welcome - I feel lost without my z

Hello,

I think you must flash new your rom. there is at this moment no chance to get a prompt for repair.

Cheers, Andreas,  I must admit that I came to the same conclusion, and have upgraded to the tkc 1.0 final ROM.  I have lost a little bit of data, but at least I don\'t have a brick...
