 Hi,

 I have problems accessing my 8Go SD Card

 For my disk, my thoughts are that the first sector is bad.  I'll try
 to confirm this later today (don't have anything else available that

Confirmed, bad disk--can't read it with anything else (and in fact,
trying to read it on my Ubuntu system puts sd_mod into a state where
it won't read another disk).

Re: dfu-util upload problems

2008-07-20 Thread Kevin Squire 
 Hi,

 I have a little problem with dfu-util and my new Freerunner.

 I thought I'd make a backup of my Neo's filesystem before flashing new
 images onto it, so I tried to use dfu-util in upload mode to transfer
 the content of the Neo's flash to my desktop PC. Backing up the kernel
 partition works, but when I back up the rootfs partition dfu-util
 transfers about 247MB and then dies with dfu_upload error -84, while
 the phone immediately reboots. It always dies at the same position, but
 I'm not sure whether the backup is complete or not.

Just wanted to say that I'm having the same problem (and same
questions): I was able to upload 258076672 bytes (=246 Mb), but then
dfu-util dies with dfu_upload error -16, and the FreeRunner reboots.
This is on Mac OS X.

 Further details: I've tried it on my desktop and on my laptop PC, with
 Ubuntu 7.10, Ubuntu 8.04 and a grml live-cd, with various dfu-util
 binaries and one built from SVN, but the error appeared every time. The
 phone was hooked up directly to the host (no hub or something), U-Boot
 version on the phone is the originally installed 1.3.2-moko12 from May
 9.

 Any ideas what's wrong?

At least one other person (you?) has indicated a similar problem at
http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Pre-Flash_Backup.  Any ideas, anyone?

Thanks,

   Kevin
