c8200 hdd partition format?
Posted: Tue May 07, 2013 11:33 pm
Hi
So I bought this almost new c8200 bluray player with a 250gb hdd. vious owner took.out the hard drive and formatted the third 200gig partition to ntfs. Now the player wont let me read anything besides bluray and dvd discs. Not even mp3 from a cd nor any avi or mkv. Dlna detects my pc server but shows no files to play. All intenet @tv functions wont work cause when trying to download a widget I get a not enough space message.
The hdd part in settings shows a 4gb drive with 0 available space corresponding to a 4gb xfs partition (As seen in gparted)
The hdd has the following structure
Sda1 ext2
Sda2 ext3
Sda3 destroyed By previous owner now formatted to ext3. (Any other filesystem leads to the player hanging after afew seconds from boot)
Sda4 4gb xfs
All partitions except sda3 had an lba flag.
Strange thing is that the info part in settings shows the model number as c8500, I thought that if I set it back to 8200 it would get back to work but I cant get access to the service menu.
I tried flashing with newest firmware but to no avail.
Does the c8200 have system files on the hdd (like codecs or other runtime libraries) or any particular folder structure?
So If any of you guys has a similar unit could you please provide the correct hdd partitions format?
anyone got access tothe service menu? Samsungremote app fails to send the keycodes.
