Ok... first off, I have a MKIIa running 3a11 with Hijack 439. No extra software installed and a 60GB hard drive. I've also tried reverting to 2.0 and nothing changes.

Now... on to the description of issue. For some time I've been having issues when trying to add new songs where the player would lock... Almost always after the first transfer. It would never recover. I have at times ran a serial dump and nothing shows there... Well, this started when I had gotten a new router so I attributed it to that. But at one point, I had reinstalled the image file and started over in loading tracks. When I did this, I never had a single failure... until the drive started to get full. At that point, it would fail after the first track and I'd have to unplug it and go through the fsck and database rebuild and then try loading again. Once this was done, it usually was happy and all loaded to the player and it worked great until the next time I tried to add songs. Well, when you have to figure in at least one fsck cycle to any changes, is a bit daunting to add songs. I had kept the size of the music on the disc small until recently... and the reason being that EVERY time I've tried to make any changes to the database other than adding songs, it crashes... and doing the fsck and database rebuild first still doesn't allow it to delete. If I try again to delete items, it crashes again and it's a constant cycle. This past Friday, I added like 1GB of music and it took me to like 394kb free... I tried to delete things and it crashed... kept trying to delete fewer and fewer things but it crashed every time. I tried at one point to only delete one song and it crashed. So now, until I redo the image, I can't add many songs...

And of course, the router is the first choice. It was changed 2 weeks ago because of another issue. Went from a D-link (which I had a lot of issues with - mostly wireless issues) to a Linksys. This improved the ability to add songs as the only crash I then was getting seems to be a 3a11 bug and that's the database crashing on rebuild after everything has gone on the player. The deleting issue wasn't resolved.

I've read nowhere about this issue and thought at first it was a Jemplode thing. I found out that is not the issue (or doesn't appear to be the issue) this past weekend when I tried most of the versions from 70 to 65 and it still crashed on delete every time. It does the same thing with Emplode but Emplode doesn't have the recovery features Jemplode has as far as rebuilding the database.

Does anyone have any ideas as to what the problem might be? Is this a known issue that I just haven't seen posted anywhere? Is it a hardware problem (hard disk?) on my end? Anyone even seen this before
