Hi, I was using a sdcard to store some data on a sqlite database. My equipment is a simple data logger, so it needs to continue turned on all the time. This morning I noted that the equipment has stopped, then I used COM1 via serial (gtkterm) to figure out what happened. The sdcard (NTFS) was mounted and I could read/write files to it. But a weird fact occurs... [root@FriendlyARM /]# df Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/root 125568 33352 92216 27% / /dev/sdcard 1902272 1312 1900960 0% /sdcard tmpfs 29492 0 29492 0% /dev/shm I have a "bd" dir inside sdcard, with the sqlite file "registries", inside it. So the directory path is: /sdcard/bd/ But when I run the command "ls", or "ls -la", i got: [root@FriendlyARM /sdcard]# ls BD. ࡢd [root@FriendlyARM /sdcard]# ls -la drwxrwxrwx 4 root root 16384 Jan 1 00:01 . drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2048 Jan 10 2036 .. drwxrwxrwx 2 root root 32768 Oct 27 2011 BD. drwxrwxrwx 2 root root 32768 Nov 17 2011 ࡢd I don't know wtf is the "BD." folder, or "ࡢd" folder... Without deleting the other folders, when I try to recreate the "bd" folder again, i get the error: [root@FriendlyARM prismaAcesso]# mkdir /sdcard/bd mkdir: cannot create directory '/sdcard/bd': File exists But there's no "bd" folder... there's only "BD. " and "ࡢd" folder. My database is inside this weird "BD. " folder, and is intact. I can read all registries inside it. Anyone knows why did it happened? Any chance to prevent it to occur again? Thanks in advance
