Hello, I tried the partitioning method described here : https://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/PRST...itioning_Guide .
When I type :
"mount -o loop /initrd/mnt/sd/mmcblk2p9.img /tmp/p2"
the terminal tells me
"mount: mounting /dev/loop1 on /tmp/p2 failed: Invalid argument"

My PRS-T1 is still connected to my computer and I don't know what to do. I am afraid that it might be bricked. Also, when I wrote the partition table, fdisk issued a warning "device is busy, the kernel will use the old partition table", is that normal ?

Please, please help. I am not a hacker but I can use the command line, so I figured I could try this procedure. Thanks.
