I've pushed changes to the OLPC kernel tree which should cope with this problem, and should prevent it happening again. More to the point, the code should now tell us _why_ it was happening. I'd very much like it if someone could run the new kernel, repeat whatever they did to cause this thing to happen in the first place, and then give me all the kernel messages following the one which looks like: 'Error in jffs2_write_dirent() -- name contains zero bytes!' -- dwmw2 ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
something went wrong in the file system
Hello, My B4 with 616 build went into some interesting state. I was copying some executable files to a directory (under /usr/local/lib/) from my USB memory and playing with it (for several iteration) from the Sugar console. But I terminate the executable and left the system idle for a night. That was yesterday. Today, I was trying to remove the file I copied by rm command but get an error that says No space left on device. I try to reboot my machine (perhaps a bad idea) but it went into the launching X loop. I did force poweroff and now the unit doesn't boot. I got OFW's ok prompt and typed: dir nand:\boot but it says: jffs2-file-system jffs2:bad read I saw some trac items about nand corruption and it might have happened to me. I don't know if there is a way to salvage some useful information from my unit at this point, but if somebody has an idea (or just say it is a known problem) please let me know. Otherwise, I'd just reinstall a build... -- Yoshiki ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
