It isn't generated automatically by any means or process that I am personally aware of, so that confused me a little.

I know. I was just speculating that the automated import of an old database_changelog.txt during the (necessary) recreation of the database may have been causing the crash.

[Saint]:
I'd speculate that a lot of users aren't even aware of the Database import/export feature personally...happy to be proved wrong.
It just surprised me as for that file to be present there needs to have been a deliberate effort to export the Database at some point, and the OP didn't mention doing so at all.

I just returned from my trip and wanted to post an update.  I believe I did a database initialize as the last step the night before I left.

When I got on the plane and turned on the e200, it halted with a one line error message and a 6-8 digit hex code - I'm sorry I can't recall what it was.  I did a few cycles of 20 second power resets and it kept halting with the same error when powering on.  A while later I got an idea so I pulled the 8GB microSDHC card and tried powering it on.  It booted fine.  I plugged in the card and it scanned it and everything has been fine since.

Hi barryg,

Thanks for the update. I hope you had a nice trip!

Could you please respond to the questions I asked a few posts back? (clarification which version you're running now, and from which earlier version you upgraded)

If you can still reproduce the issue, could you please try a recent build? SVN revision r30122 contains an important dircache fix for a problem that may have caused the crash.

barryg:
I'm not sure what previous version was running before the upgrade but I know the previous flash occurred in May 2009.

I can NOT reproduce the error at this point.  Perhaps it will crop up if I add some more files - I'll proceed to flash a recent build if so.
