Boot errors

[rappa]

I had my sheevaplug boxed up for a few months, during a move, and now I'm getting all sorts of boot errors.  I have the plug booting from an SD card.  The data on the card appears to be all there and good.  It boots up but nearly all commands fail.  Here's an output of my boot sequence.  Any sugguestions are appreciated.

I ran fsck on the card from my Ubuntu notebook.  It detects and appears to resolve the problems, however, when I plug the sd card into the sheevaplug, I continue to get the same errors.

I ran fsck on the card from my Ubuntu notebook.  It detects and appears to resolve the problems,

Did you re-run fsck -f until no more errors appeared?

however, when I plug the sd card into the sheevaplug, I continue to get the same errors.

Are they the same, or just similar?  Is it still complaining about referencing deleted inode 237245.    Does it still start with:

EXT3-fs warning: mounting fs with errors, running e2fsck is recommended

Difficult to see why that would continue if the file-system has been fixed.

It looks as though you aren't booting off the SDHC card, but rather off NAND.  Perhaps that is corrupted in some way?
A boot from SDHC starts like this:

I ran fsck -f

and after about 1000 yes prompts, I got:

/dev/sdb1: ***** FILE SYSTEM WAS MODIFIED *****
/dev/sdb1: 28877/488640 files (0.3% non-contiguous), 350292/1953897 blocks

I ran it again to verify it at least did something:

andrew@ubuntu:~$ sudo fsck -f /dev/sdb1
fsck 1.41.4 (27-Jan-2009)
e2fsck 1.41.4 (27-Jan-2009)

WARNING!!!  Running e2fsck on a mounted filesystem may cause
SEVERE filesystem damage.

Do you really want to continue (y/n)? yes

Now I get a kernel panic when I boot from the card.  I've pasted the entire boot output in the hopes that it will illuminate the issue:

Any suggestions on how to recover my plug at this point?  I can't even boot w/o the SD  card (kernel panic) so not sure what to do.  I assume the SD card data is going and I can live with that.

[rappa]

Being impatient, I attempt the uboot reset http://www.plugcomputer.org/plugwiki/index.php/Factory_Default_u-Boot_Environment

Everything seemed to go fine except when I set the bootcmd:

Marvell>> setenv bootcmd nand read.e 0x800000 0x100000 0x400000; bootm 0x800000
## Booting image at 00800000 ...
Bad Magic Number ' - try 'help'

Now the boot hangs at:

NAND read: device 0 offset 0x100000, size 0x400000

Reading data from 0x4ff800 -- 100% complete.
 4194304 bytes read: OK

Not sure what to do now.

I ran fsck -f

and after about 1000 yes prompts,

There's a -y option to auto-answer yes all the time.

andrew@ubuntu:~$ sudo fsck -f /dev/sdb1
fsck 1.41.4 (27-Jan-2009)
e2fsck 1.41.4 (27-Jan-2009)
/dev/sdb1 is mounted. 

WARNING!!!  Running e2fsck on a mounted filesystem may cause
SEVERE filesystem damage.

Well - that's the problem.  Didn't that message mean anything to you?
To run fsck you have to unmount the file system.  Which for an SDHC card in a Plug (usually) means taking it out, attaching it to another Linux system and fsck'ing it there.

[rappa]

yes, of course I ran fsck on my notebook.. the plug doesn't even boot, which is sort of the problem I'm trying to remedy

[birdman]

yes, of course I ran fsck on my notebook..

Then please explain the

/dev/sdb1 is mounted.

WARNING!!!  Running e2fsck on a mounted filesystem may cause
SEVERE filesystem damage.

message, and why you appeared to ignore it.
