After database refresh, e200 is dead
barryg:
I updated my Rockbox version to 3.9 last night and everything went smoothly. I subsequently uploaded several albums. This morning, I selected database on the menu and was prompted to refresh the database and I said "yes". It completed the operation (9/9) but then the screen went black and the Sansa won't respond to the power button now.
Any advice appreciated!
Post Merge: June 29, 2011, 08:13:09 AMI found info on doing a reset by holding power button for 20 seconds and it now powers up!
(sorry for not searching harder sooner)

Glad that it worked out for you. Still, the crash you've seen is worrisome. May I ask a few questions on the exact circumstances, and maybe even to try to reproduce it?
From which version of Rockbox have you upgraded?
Do you have an old /.rockbox/database_changelog.txt file lying around?
If you don't mind, could you please try initializing the database again (database settings → Initialize Now)?
If the crash happens again, could you try the same procedure again after renaming the database_changelog.txt file? (Please don't remove it, it might be useful for debugging.)
barryg:
There's no database_changelog.txt file to be found
Version is r30094-110628
I just uploaded a ton of stuff in preparation for a trip I'm just about to leave on. The database updated fine. If I see an issue with the initialize, I'll report back.

database_changelog.txt is created manually by going to the Menu option:
Settings - General Settings - Database - Export Modifications
It isn't generated automatically by any means or process that I am personally aware of, so that confused me a little.

I didn't mean to ask which version you were running, assuming it was Rockbox 3.9 as you first said, but this is interesting nonetheless: :)
This is not Rockbox 3.9, but a current build. You may have run into a dircache instability in the post-3.9 branch. We generally do not support unreleased builds here, but you're welcome to file a bug report in the tracker. See also FS#12175 [1].
Which version have you been upgrading from (i.e., which version did you run prior to the upgrade)?
