Thanks for the tips. I need to read the following posts slowly then, too much information there:

* Photos inside the Pocket Edge
* PE Hardware serial console
* A Thread for Vicinc's Device (bad blocks, bad sectors in internal memory (/sdcard) )

Before doing anything of the above I was able to move the Internal Storage from the Internal Memory (/sdcard) to the External Memory (/extsdcard), after the movement and a reboot the original /extsdcard became /sdcard and everything started working again.

I don't mind this set-up (where it seems I'm just losing those ~2GB of internal memory from the edge) but now I have the problem that I want to wipe that data (stored in /intsdcard) but I'm not able to do so, even with root access via unix terminal or a explorer app.

In both cases I delete files/folders in that /intsdcard location and I receive the message 'successfully deleted' but after refreshing, all files reappear.

Any idea how can this folder be wiped out? All files there belong to root:root and are rwx but still, I'm unable to deleted them.
