After mounting the second partition and copying the two files there
it worked. No longer was I stuck at the 3 dots. I typed in exit and
came up into the SD card. I wanted to bypass that first boot and
come directly into the SD like we had it before the crash. So I
issued "ln -sf /linuxrc-sdroot /linuxrc; save" and now it is broke
again. I am back to the 3 dots then getting stuck.
The md5 checks out in /dev/sdcard0/disc0/part2. So what is wrong
now? I ran the update_9441 again, but no luck. Where else can I
look?
Thanks again for the help.
