Subject: *PANIC* recfile: -4 and lose everything

*PANIC* recfile: -4 and lose everything

I have a Archos JBR V2 (P/N 4000028) with a strange problem. I am
running the Rockbox 2.5 firmware and have also successfully flashed
the unit. I have reformatted and re-unzipped the 2.5 firmware, so
starting out clean.

Here's the issue: whenever I try to record, everything appears to be
going fine (Time and Size increments, levels move, etc) until I end
the recording. As soon as I stop the recording I get the following
display:

*PANIC*
recfile: -4

The green light is on and the red light is flashing.

At that point I hold the OFF button for 10 seconds or so to turn off
the unit. When I turn it back on I get the messages "No rockbox
directory" and "Installation incomplete."

If I hook the unit up to my laptop at this point, here's what the
directory listing looks like"

Any idea what is happening here? Bad disk? I've reformatted several
times now, ran chkdsk, etc all to no avail. Seems to work fine until
I try to record.

Don't know if this helps any:
