    Hello guys ! (and girls, obviously !)
    I am the lucky owner of a AAO 110 8 Go with Linpus, that I use without problem for two years.... almost !
    It was getting very slow, and at the very moment I installed a new 44000 mA.h battery to extend its autonomy, it didn't want to boot properly : "could not initiate HAL". I tried many times, with the old battery, with power supply connected.... Still the same !
    OK, no problemo, I insert my USB memory stick containing a restoration image (made with AA1Backup, used before, no pb), but the restoration is extremely slow : ETA is now 34 hours !
    So I fear the flash HHD is dead... Does it look to be dead to you too ?
    Thanks for sharing your thoughts !

    Some extra data :
    - It started to slow down after an update
    - I used a tuto to prevent the fan from running continuously

    Update : after several trials, I now have the message ata2 srst failed, then "no disk image" and the HDD does not appear in the boot options : is it dead ?
