Oh, man, that's crummy. Is it possible that this is unrelated? Any chance your battery is dead or something? It's unclear to me how copying something to /mnt/protected could cause the iLiad to fail to boot. Unless perhaps something very fundamental in the filesystem got messed up by accident? The iLiad seems to be designed to protect all of the really crucial stuff, so that seems kind of unlikely...

This is a very stupid, obvious, question, perhaps, but did you try reflashing to an iRex image from a CF card? Or, wait, I think you said in a post that pressing the IDS button doesn't seem to register. So that wouldn't work.

Hm.
