2008-02-22 11:18:42 Accessing/mounting HD (EZkit bf548, recent trunk): system hangs

Message: 51507 Hi all
With a recent trunk (some weeks ago) I have the problem that the system hangs if I try to access the hard disk (40GB) on the EZ-Kit BF548 Board. I can mount it but as soon as I try to access it (for ex: ls [mountpath]) the system hangs.
All worked fine with an older trunk (late Dezember 07).
When I mount it, it gives me the following warning (also with the old trunk):
root:~> mount /dev/sda1 home/devel/HD/
EXT2-fs warning: mounting unchecked fs, running e2fsck is recommended
root:~>
When I try to do a e2fsck:
- with the old trunk: the following error trace is printed: see e2fsck_log.txt
- with the new trunk: the system hangs, I let it run for some 2 or 3 hours, no message was printed..
I am not sure if running e2fsck will solve the problem of the hanging system when accessing the mounted HD... but its the only trace for now (?)
Thanks for any advice
Regards
Piggebu

Can you try to comment out this line in
vendors/AnalogDevices/BF548-EZKIT/Makefile
# $(ROMFSINST) -e CONFIG_PATA_BF54X -a "echo 20 > /proc/sys/vm/pagecache_ratio" /etc/rc
and see if this makes a difference?

Thank you very much Michael! Everything works now, all little spooky things are gone (i.e. fine) as well (strange command prompt, accessing HD, working libusb etcetc)!
*uff* finally
Thanks again and kind regards
