The bindmounts are not active until Scratchbox is started. Could it be
that the corruption of your system was due that you were trying to
remove an active Scratchbox installation?

Wow! Thanks, I didn't see that command in the maemo quick start tutorial.
Not sure what you meant by "active" installation, though. If that
means "mounts" active, I would think the kernel should not mess up the
file system even so.
Regardless, I really appreciate the help.
Thanks,
Jeff
