Yes, there is a small chance you might lose some music already loaded on the machine, and have to re-download it again. Very small chance.

But the real question is whether or not the car2-developer image will even install under these circumstances.. it should, I think. At the end, it may end up looping the same as above (actually, it WILL), but then just do the "Control^C" and then these commands:

  mount -n /dev/hda4 /drive0 -oremount,ro

  fsck -fay /dev/hda4

  sync

and it might behave after that.

You won't damage the hardware.. worst case, if all else fails, you can just reinitialize the unit and start over.
