Booting Faliure. #53

Closed Fighterhen63 closed 2 months ago

Fighterhen63 commented 2 months ago

Hello once again. This has happened a few times, and thought i'd bring it to attention. When I type in 3 and push enter the screen shows the first two lines and then shuts off and reboots to the recovery screen. Is this a known issue? This happens very occasinally, but it just happened again and before I wipe everything just want to make sure its something I might be able to fix.

Edit: After looking at the sd card it appears that everything got deleted somehow image

Another update, now I cannot format my SD Card at all, chrome recovery tool, commands. Dang.

LavedenC1 commented 2 months ago

Fighterhen63 commented 2 months ago

I know that, but I cannot format it now like it just wont my Nintendo Switch cant even format it idk what to do

LavedenC1 commented 2 months ago

What is your chrome version? Are you able to add a personal account or add any chrome extension you want on your school account?

Fighterhen63 commented 2 months ago

What is your chrome version?

108 but im using a fully updated version of the chrome recovery tool

LavedenC1 commented 2 months ago

Also why can't you format it?

Fighterhen63 commented 2 months ago

Also why can't you format it?

Not sure. It just wont let me. The recovery tool keeps giving me a chromeos burner image error and I don't have a windows laptop and crosh is telling me its read only so I can't format it.

Fighterhen63 commented 2 months ago

Its claiming its right protected. I've never seen that from a micro sd card

LavedenC1 commented 2 months ago

Show me a picture of the errors

Fighterhen63 commented 2 months ago

Try running df on crosh, and tell me the results, and does termux have su priveledges?
