And I thought I was going to have to reformat my 4MB ATA store.
Symptoms:
When I access Extras I get an instant reboot
If I'm lucky I get so far as selecting Merlin. But If I try and delete
or move it I get a reboot.
I get continuous reboots until I remove the card. Then automount does
work, but if I try and access Extras see above.
It looked hopeless. But this worked:
1. Freeze Merlin.
2. Move Merlin to the internal store (lockup here so wait a while).
3. Remove card (Newton reboots because I removed the card while
mounted).
4. Insert Card. Wait a while for Paul's superb journaling to fix up the
card without Merlin on it.
5. Unfreeze Merlin.
Zero data loss.
Note for future: Never-move-Merlin-to-a-card. Perhaps it's protected but
because I have UnProtect:Eggs installed I wasn't informed.
Regards,
Adam
