Hi everyone. I've been having this problem since I started rooting my Note, and I haven't the slightest clue how to fix it. Basically, when I boot to TWRP recovery and try to do a wipe (the default wipe which includes wiping cache, Dalvik, and formatting data), the recovery hangs on "Formatting /data using make_ext4fs function," and after about two minutes the application restarts. If I attempt to flash a ROM after that, I get "Can't mount /data," and other can't mount errors and even though Aroma loads fine, the tablet gets stuck on the boot screen (Samsung logo). Someone on the TWRP website suggested that the tablet is encrypted but I never encrypted the device myself.
Thanks for reading!

P.S. I see similar errors to the picture at the botttom of this thread: formatting data using make_ext4fs function
