Recovering bricked XD3200

So I bricked my XD3200.

I can successfully enter failsafe mode. However, this is where I become unstuck.

Running firstboot gives me:

/dev/mtdblock5 is not mounted
/dev/mtdblock5 will be erased on next mount

Running mount_root gives me:

jffs2 not ready yet, using temporary tmpfs overlay

What should I do?

/dev/mtdblock5 is not mounted
/dev/mtdblock5 will be erased on next mount

mtdblock5 contains "rootfs_data", so this is expected and correct. Issue firstboot then reboot -f inside failsafe and after the reboot you should have system in the "initial" state.

If you just want to modify some files on root partition, issue only mount_root (without firstboot).

Thanks pepe2k! I am sure I tried this before and it didn't work, but no matter, this time it did! Thank you! :slight_smile:
