Beta 12B Sync trouble. - 20/07/2000 15:51

After applying Beta12B I got sync problems on both USB and serial on MarkI.
I've never had sync probs. since Beta8 or something.

Here's the message I get:
The Syncronisation Process Failed During Stage 2 With Error 0xff00000b.

Also noticed that the infomation I had entered about the player was gone.
Cannot quit the player, and get to a shell when in developer mode either.
Just some error dumps, and the player restarts.

I am getting the same error message in emplode (both the beta 12b version and the technology preview) when attempting to synchronise my Mk1 over serial, but the empeg locks up and the last message on the screen is "Starting Poll Thread Failed". I have to power cycle the empeg to get it going again.

After having similar trouble earlier (11a i think) I deleted my config.ini
file, and fsck'ed. After this it worked again.

(May have been luck, Dont really know.)

The error means that fsck segfaulted (which is why manually fscking solved the problem). We're trying to establish why.
