Well, the driver was definitely installed and adb had no trouble talking to the device. I did not modify the driver file but I can't see how driver can make mount not mounting.
[edit] oooh now I see: it worked because my previous Samsung driver took over, for some reason. Still, after changing the driver to the provided one, I have the exact same problem.
I was able to make mount work by removing "remount" option and adding -t ext4 option. However, this changed the error to permission denied. It looked like /system was mounted read-only.
However, new question: should I update the device before rooting it? Initially I didn't, but after all the trouble I updated it (to version 1.2.4) and now it seems to be ignoring recovery.img sdcard -- I put it in, but no matter how much I wait / how many times I reboot, it doesn't shut down by itself.
[edit] as per
http://www.lesen.net/forum/ebook-rea...f%C3%BCr-root/ , we can't root version 1.2. Oh well, I'll re-image my card.
