Possible corrupt file system fsck and chkdsk can't see

(1/2) > >>

dbjork:
Sansa e280v2
Version 3.6, I can't see SVN numbers with this version, only 3.6

There's about 1 Gig of mp3 files that show up in the database that are not viewable under Files.
The database shows them in a directory called /##MUSIC#.
For a while /##MUSIC# and /##PORT# showed up under Files but not any more.
The music is all there but the /## directories can't be seen by either Unix or Windows.
I ran both fsck and chkdsk.  They think things are fine.
Looking for help is difficult since all search programs appear to ignore a pound-sign

The OF creates those folders and hides them in USB mode.  You won't be able to see them except when using Rockbox's USB mode.

dbjork:
Thanks for the explanation, but I'm still stuck.  I thought the Rockbox USB mode didn't work on Sansa.  Whenever I plug it into a USB port the original Sansa firmware starts up.
How did I manage to get those files on the machine?  As I recall I only ever loaded music by copying it into the /MUSIC directory.
Or how do I get into Rockbox's USB mode?

funman:
USB works in current builds but not in 3.6

dbjork:
Thank you.  I'll get the latest.
