JFFS error... Read-only file system

[Livin]

dmesg | more ... attached

error... "/jffs/services-start.txt: Read-only file system"

I have 2 AC68R ... both on the same firmware. (374.43_2-23B8j9527)

upon updating 1 unit, JFFS got wiped. Now I cannot write to it at all. I have tried several reboots, several formats, disabling/enabling JFFS, etc. The other unit is fine. These have only ever had Merlin or John builds on them.

ideas how to fix?

I don't see any JFFS errors or bad blocks only this...

Scanning device for bad blocks

Creating 2 MTD partitions on "brcmnand":
0x000004000000-0x000008000000 : "brcmnand"

VFS: Mounted root (squashfs filesystem) readonly on device 31:3.

thx for the help!

please verify the router...no such thing as 86R....
also, pleas post the syslog (provide a file share link, in a PM if you prefer), not dmesg

Thanks...just wanted to make sure it wasn't a 66R

Then something to try......
- Check off the option to disable JFFS, Apply, and reboot
-Check the option to enable JFFS, and the option to format at next boot, Apply, and reboot
- Reboot again without changing any options.

Did it a 3rd time... it worked! Wow. Never had that happen before

Sorry for the false alarm, thanks for the quick reply.

Your work is awesome, and much appreciated my friend!

V23 expanded the jffs space on the 56U/68U from 32M to 64M. You are the first to report a problem. The only thing I can think of is that there was something 'bad' in the expanded space (previously unused) that was causing a problem that required a reformat.
