Remounting filesystem read-only




Sounds like your ext2fs (that's the filesystem the empeg runs on) isn't very happy with itself.

Possible solutions:

1> from the serial terminal, hit q to get to a shell prompt. Then, type rw and rwm to mount the drives read-write. If it lets to do this, then wait a minute or so, then pull the power. Next time it syncs, it will force a filesystem check.

2> if the rw and rwm doesn't work, try fsck -fay /dev/hda4.

3> It that doesn't work (which is possible), and you haven't uploaded much music, you could always load the diskbuilder images from www.empeg.com, and then reapply the player image. This will completely destroy the existing files and filesystems, and start you from scratch. If you let the builder image run for a bit, it will test the drives, to determine if they are going bad.

And of course, if none of this works, follow Tony's advice and contact support.
