I have some trouble with my hard disc. After a "Contact support" problem I installed the disc builder image, run it, reinstalled the empeg 2.00b13 sw with hijack 3.40, preinit, mkprgpt and so on. But the hard disc does not work correct. See the follwing boot sequence:

If there is anyone present who wants to upgrade the flash, let them speak now,
or forever hold their peace...it seems not. Let fly the Penguins of Linux!

Some files are not accessable (error: read-only) although I have set rw. Scripts are not executed, ...

When forcing a check media with jemplode I get the following:

e2fsck 1.19, 13-Jul-2000 for EXT2 FS 0.5b, 95/08/09

When pressing CTRL+T during boot I get all O.K. with the hardware.

When trying to follow the hand work file check (as mentioned in the FAQ) I get errors with /dev/hdc4.

When setting the drive to rw I get an read-only error while accessing for instance config.ini, when setting the drive to rwm it works.

Does anybody have an idea with that problem?
