Sansa Clip Zip "Could not write firmware file"
« on: May 10, 2013, 02:04:10 PM »
I'm currently running a dev build on my Clip Zip (fa6dc05-130-115). The 'Hold switch' function doesn't seem to be working so I tried to update to the stable version.

The update fails with the message "Could not  write firmware file". I save the log and attached it.

What went wrong?

You've selected /run/lock as mountpoint. This is wrong. The trace shows that the correct mountpoint in your case would have been /media/SANSA CLIPZ.

Thanks! That fixed it.

Actually /run/lock was selected for me. I didn't realize that I had to change it. I must have missed something in the directions
