Ok.... so everytime I boot my player now it attempts to rebuild the database. So I'm trying to get to a shell prompt to fix what ever it is thats bugging this thing.... However in hyperterm I don't get the chance to hit "q" before the database rebuild occurs... after the database rebuild it's unresponsive to commands through hyperterm. I have the latest developer image and hijack installed. I've been digging around the FAQ and other then using the disk utility and starting over (which I'd rather not do) I don't know what else to do.

I should also add that when I try to connect via emplode I get timed out at the "checking media" stage of syncing.
