Please post your error messages here for further debugging. Do not only describe the errors you are getting.
Try to check for file system health of MyDocs:Look for free space on your device:Code:sudo gainroot umount /dev/mmcblk0p1 fsck -af /dev/mmcblk0p1 mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /home/user/MyDocsDid you try to fsck from a Linux-PC or Linux-Live-CD via rw-mode in BackupMenu, not just in BackupMenu itself?Code:df du -kx / | sort -n | tail -n 20 du -kx /home | sort -n | tail -n 20 mount free sudo gainroot sfdisk -l
Errors may have been encountered: code:4 /dev/mmcblk0p2: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY; RUN fsck MANUALLY (i.e., without -a or -p options)

Download Gparted-Live-CD.iso file or any Linux-Live-CD image containing gparted application
Burn Gparted-Live-CD to CD or DVD
Install Backupmenu to your N900
Reboot the N900 with keyboard ejected
In Bootmenu type 'w' to export the partitions in read/write-mode
Boot your PC from the Live-CD
If necessary start gparted
Choose the device (hard disk) in the upper right drop down menu should be some 30GB size.
Right click on the second partition (approx.2GB) and choose 'Check' (Dont worry you will be asked to apply actions later).
Now click apply in the upper toolbar and accept the changes to be applied.
If everything is checked successfully, shut down the PC
On the N900 press 'q' to quit backupmenu and restart Maemo.
Start VBox, setup the virtual machine, but wait before launching it for the N900.
Shutdown your N900, restart it with keyboard out to have the menu to start BackupMenu.
In BackupMenu hit the 'w' to export the partitions 'read/write'.
In Windows close all the Explorer pop-ups, then configure the USB-rules in VBox. Add the NokiaN900 and every UnknownDevice, if any to your virtual Debian. Start the virtual machine to the desktop.
Now in Windows 'Remove safely' the N900 device through the status bar icon, but do not pull the cable! On your N900 press again 'w' to stop 'read/write'-mode, wait a couple of seconds to again enable 'read/write' with 'w'. Now the virtual machine picks up the USB-devices correctly. Start Gparted on the virtual machine and do what have to be done.

Here is a walkthrough for those steps
And some additional steps to get the same method working in a virtual maschine:
Though it might sound really complex, it may be done in 30 to 40 minutes.
Checking the OptFS... errors may have been encountered: code : 8 fsck.ext2: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/mmcblk0p2 press any key to continue
Checking MyDocs... errors may have been encountered: code : 8 fsck.ext2: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/mmcblk0p1 press any key to continue
Checking the OptFS... errors may have been encountered: code : 8 fsck.ext2: No such file or directory while trying to open /dev/mmcblk0p2 press any key to continue

In rw-mode, sometimes I can access mass storage in Windows Explorer, sometimes I can't
I briefly took out the battery and rebooted in BackupMenu. This time fsck didn't produce errors about OptFS.
my n900 was functioning flawlessly, until i tried the settings to undercurrent the cpu. i have kernel power v49 and battery patch installed. i never had any problem due to overclocking, so i thought i would try to undercurrent using the kernel-config load lv command.
the instructions should state this could cause some device to reboot. i didnt know, by the time i realised it was already too late.
m n900 kept rebooting many times after i undercurrent the cpu. then i began to get many problems. initially i lost all contacts. then m n900 entered reboot loops. this random reboots happened for 4-5 hours and finally stopped after i set kernel-config load ideal.
however by now, i have a barely functioning n900 with many issues:
- missing images, broken theme
- empty contacts
- cant open dialling pad, call history shows incoming/outgoing/missed icons but neither names nor numbers
- hildon-thumbnails using up almost 100 percent cpu
- unable to access n900 on my pc, only can see the removable storage icons but cant open
- status bar icons gone
- microb works but without flash, and trying to download or save page will cause internal error
- cant fsck from backupmenu or xterm, both rootfs and optfs
- many more
i,m really in a dire situation because this is my main phone, i'm away from home and i need to be always available this week. especially during this time due to getting a new job.
this is just so frustrating. i havent try flashing it yet. it might solve the corrupted fs issue but i cant backup my files before flashing. i've spent a lot of time and money to get things working on this phone, now everything goes to **** due to a stupid tweak.....
is there other ways to copy my files before i flash this bugger?
