Install rootsh from the repos.
Open terminal, type root, hit enter, then type:
Code:
fsck.vfat -a /dev/mmcblk1p1
Then reboot

Edit: When someone sees your thread and they know the answer they'll reply, reposting something after 21 minutes doesn't help...

I crashed put of a transmission session the other day and caused a similar problem. I ended up un mounting the volume, ran an fsck -f on it and rebooted to remount it.

It all came back and worked then.

I have had luck fixing this by attaching to a PC in mass storage mode and then letting the Windows file system fix wizard perform the fixes. I did not lose any data. I am running Windows 7. When the volume mounted on the PC, I was automatically asked if I wanted Windows to fix the drive problems.

That might help.

I think re-posting 20 minutes later will make the thread pop to the top of the "new posts" lists. there for keeping it a lil more relefveant. I knwo i don't scroll through the hundreds of posts in the general threads. I usually scroll through tthe first few and see whats interesting or what i can help with. id, maybe that's why he reposted so soon. just guessing

I think it will destroy the file stream to the microSD card, which will be re-opened on restart.
