I recently rooted my HTC one X (rogers)
I had AOKP Jelly Bean 1.4 installed with the gapps.
However I was have issues with my phone randomly restarting.

So I went ahead and made a Titanium backup of my phone, re-downloaded the latest AOKP build with Gapps.
booted back into TWRP 2.3.0.0 and Wiped the following

Cache
Dalvik Cache
System

Then I did the idiotic thing and wiped External Storage and System. However both failed.
When I tried to do a factory reset, it would fail stating :
E: unable to mount /sdcard
E: unable to mount storage

Im trying to install the AOKP rom and gapps but cant because I get the error
E: unable to mount /sdcard
E: unable to mount storage

I'm freaking out.
I don't know what to do.

any help would be greatly appreciated.
Im very new to android root. newb. sorry

I can adb into the phone and pushed the rom zip and gapps zip to the sd card.
I can see the files when I go to install rom zip and gapps zip.
I queue the files up and install and get the following error

E: Unable to mount ' /sdcard'
E: Unable to recreate amdrpod secure folder

Glad I could help

Hi XsMagical... I saw in the nocturnal pages that you had helped someone out with the same problem with an HTC One S. I've managed to do the same thing and corrupted my storage. Is there any help you could offer?
Thanks for your time,

UPDATE:
I got it sorted... managed to flash the stock recovery, clear partition, and then factory reset... then it was business back to normal..
thanks though!

The Link is for the One X... I've got the same problem but with a One S. Apparently if you use the One X fix on the One s it will brick the phone.

From the Nocturnal Forums re: using the same files
"Nooo send me a ruu and I'll make the guide. If you use these recovery files you will brick your phone"

Oh I misunderstood since you're posting in onexl forums, I assumed you had a onexl.
