Everytime i try to load android build i get the error "can't mount system.img", or sometimes just "can't mount system"

i get this alot and i really cant find any way to bypass it.

i know everything in the default.txt is right because i've been useing different android builds for a month now. its just i want to give a newer build a try but every time i try to get a new build running i get the errors.

yes i use the basefiles20091009.zip. and i still get the errors. and i delete all the android data on my SD card, but i STILL cant get it to work. any ideas? please help

**Update 11.09.09. I got the prob solved, it was cause chrome corrupts the files. Now i'm on a mission to find a great rom. but my next prob (yah i kno) is that some hero builds are looping at the "Hero" and "HTC" splash screens. my default resolution is 320x480 lcd density=160. i wonder whats up here. lemme know if you found something that can help. **

it sounds like your system or rootfs is

finally someone else has the same issue as me!!! sorry to hear that bt everyone keeps tellin me that my files are messed up but Ive done this many times before and just now its acting up. I think it might be my SD card tho since it times out on haret and says 'waiting on SD' but when I use an old kernal it boots fine I dont get it at all

Try renaming the system.img file to system.sqsh and put it on the root of your storage card.

Also useful is just a nice fresh start, backup anything on your SDcard you need and reformat it. Redownload the base files and your system.sqsh image and reload everything then try and boot.

Don't download the system.img with chrome.
Thats what was causing my problem, for some reason chrome corrupts system.imgs

chrome causes 50mb limits and what-nots use IE or Opera = my $0.02

you really think that my system.img and system.sqsh are corrupt? well i have been useing chrome for ever, so imma try IE and see what that'll do. wish me luck.

** Woops forget, i cant download anything anymore cause vogue here is no more. :( oh well i guess i'll just live with ZenHero's 090809 build. **

You can download the Ion build from Dzo.

ok,
ya'll never gonna believe this, but using IE actually worked! thanks to zenulator's new post of the hero builds on mediafire i've redownloaded them using IE 8 and low-and-behold THEY WORKED ON MY VOGUE! I am a happy happy person. who would have ever though that it'll work?!

THANKS YOU SO F-ING MUCH! :)
