The hard drive in the mp3 just spins up and back down when I plug the usb in. Now it's not even showing up under /dev. Do you guys think it's a bad hdd and it's time to get a new mp3?
Oh and when I ran badblocks, I believe there were some errors, but it was hard to tell, because there was no output for a while then my braille terminal was flooded with numbers. What do you think? Thanks, Dan.
