Problem upgrading H140 firmware

You can't do this for an initial install on h100 series -- you need to boot Rockbox first, and only afterwards you can flash rombox. Initial flashing needs to be done from IriverOS. It is of course possible he built the bootloader himself or used the wrong binary for patching the hex file. I consider this somewhat unrealistic as we provide fwpatcher for this task and have md5sums to verify the result -- ignoring this might be a bad idea ...

rasher:
Try running scandisk on the drive from Windows.

Right-click the drive, select "properties > tools > check now", hopefully this is the problem.

If you're on Linux use fsck.vfat /dev/sda1 (where sda1 corresponds with your Iriver - it must not be mounted).

dunno:
Update from the mistic thread:

The user did a diskscan, to no avail, still bricked.

He said he would send his unit to iviver for repair/reflashing.
