Help! I didn't brick my e260 (I am an idiot)

(1/1)

Hamelin:
This is only passingly related to Rockbox, but I wasn't sure where to post it.

Basically, I was screwing around in ubuntu, I was using gparted and when I selected the e260 I noticed there was a little extra partition at the end of the drive.

In a fit of absolute brilliance I thought to myself "Hey! That must be wasted space, I could expand the main partition to fill up the whole drive and squeeze a little extra storage out of my mp3 player, durrhhh!" and I did, thus deleting what I now realize to be the partition that holds the player's main firmware and its recovery console.

See, not too bright. So I bricked the thing pretty bad. Am I totally screwed or is there something I can do to reconstruct the partitions on my device.

Chronon:
There's a link to an "unbricking" guide on the SansaFAQ page.  Here's a direct link: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/SansaE200Unbrick

Hamelin:
I fixed it. Thanks.
