Glad it worked out, and... you're welcome :-)

Now the real question is *WHY* this happened. Can you get a dump of "showlog" before it gets outdated? Hopefully, there is a clue in the logs as to what went wrong. For instance, just run "showlog > /mnt/us/broken.log" or whatever on the device. I'd really be curious about the cause of the error.

You can delete all of them. The only one important for the functionality is the RUNME.done (If it's present, RUNME.sh will not run again; but that logic is coded inside RUNME.sh itself).

Or would it be best, to keep the "test ..." line inside for possible future repair action in RUNME.sh?
I guess that's up to you. For maximum "standards-compliance" of your device, remove the additional line. You can always get this version back by "installing" data.tar.gz.

EDIT: typo. The command is "showlog", not "showlogs".
