Err.. missing step 0: kill off and close emplode/JEmplode *before* attempting any of this, and don't restart them until all of this has been completed.


And perhaps also do this after the database rebuild, before attempting to use emplode/jemplode:

rom
e2fsck -fy /
e2fsck -fy /dev/hda4
tune2fs -c -1 -i 0 /dev/hda4
tune2fs -c 1 -i 0 /dev/hda5

That should cure it permanently.
