mount: /mnt: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/mmcblk0p10, missing codepage, or helper program, or other error
fdisk -l recognizes it as "Linux filesystem", and fsck also complains about "Bad magic number of superblock" |
This warning from the original Alpine Kindle github page may or not be relevant, but as someone who bricked a Scribe NAND, please give it a read just in case:
WHILE ALPINE IS RUNNING / THE IMAGE IS MOUNTED, DO NOT CONNECT YOUR KINDLE TO THE COMPUTER WITHOUT USBNETWORK ENABLED! The image resides in /mnt/us, and that is your usb mass storage location. When Alpine and the computer write on the userstore partition (partition 4) at the same time, it will be destroyed, and you need to fix that partition to get your Kindle working again. It might even be possible to brick the Kindle!!! Kual has an option to show the USBNetwork status, so check that beforehand if you plan on doing SSH while Alpine runs.
