Samsung Galaxy S - Unable to unmount /system for image restore

James G · 2011-05-07 18:39:06

Edit: Never mind. I reflashed stock 2.2.1 and then set up CWM again and it worked. I want to restore a nandroid backup via clockworkmod, but I keep getting the errors: When I try to only unmount /system via the option available in CWM, I get the error: while being able to unmount /cache, /data, etc. Anyone happen to know…

I want to restore a nandroid backup via clockworkmod, but I keep getting the errors:

E:format_volume failed to unmount "/system"
Error while formatting /system!

When I try to only unmount /system via the option available in CWM, I get the error:

Error unmounting /system!

while being able to unmount /cache, /data, etc.

Anyone happen to know how I can properly unmount /system?

I have the same exact problem, error unmounting /system... I have to flash a JVB backup so I need Gingerbread bootloaders, but I heard that Froyo works with them... maybe this time I'll get there.
