Ron46 · 07-11-2010, 01:23 PM

Flashed my wife's machine with released v. 16 and it works fine. Hers never had 15G on it.

Reflashed mine with beta 16, then released 16, and it now works fine also. The only thing I can postulate is that since mine had 15G on it at one time, the 15G bug may not have been purged with the reflash.

I think 16 beta and released are the same file anyway. Same bit count 54231040 and same date and time.

Another variation was that this time I did everything in Windows- extraction, format SD, and load folders on SD. The first time, some of it was done in Linux.

I'll never report a bug after this without attempting a second reflash first. The 15G bug was a good call, I'm not so sure about this one.
