[E2] Rockbox Database.... F*CKUP!

[nihilus53]

Several days ago, I was enjoying/ exploring my nice rokr e2 with rockbox portrait blackhawk version. So i went to settings, general settings, database and i wanted to update it but i accidentaly selected initialize. so..... it started initializing database. so i was like oh shit, so i lock the keypad press a key and quit the app. but no problem, i open it  again. i want to hear f*cking guns n roses and a message like this shows up:


Database is no ready
Initialize now
Select = Yes
Any Other = No

So im like crap now i have to wait. but i thought it would be like a matter of 10-20 minutes. I left it an entire day and it wasn't done. It changes the number of found stuff like 2 times and stops. I uninstall and reinstall and it was still there.
How the hell do i recover my old database, i already update it too. doesn't work.

Other Rockbox questions  (i dont want to post like 3 topics)
How do i make playlists? seems like I can only with like the songs of the whole album im listening. so its the same as going to the database and selecting the album.
Several apps dont work. like doom, and the viewer. Any fixes?
I heard that it has a recording thingy. how do I make it work?
Where do i get new equalizers, any of u guys knows where we can get them?
are there any other games apps or so?
what is the oscilloscope app in rockbox?
Any answers please post here. My priority is in the database issue
Thanks guys
PS: im trying to make a manual of rockbox for noobs and retards but i need to be able to use rockbox and every app at max efficiency. any discoveries and cool stuff plz tell me

LinkSYS enabled? Try disable it...

Rockbox actually wasn't meant for E2, Rockbox was meant to mp3 player, or ipod, but not Rokr, then how it can work on our E2 you ask? well, someone port it, but since it's a port, you couldn't expect a full compatibility, some apps that came with it won't work, at least for now.

Don't update your rockbox, since it just a port,
For database, just disable your linksys

thanks guys it works.
how does linksys interfere with rockbox?
and wtf is linksys on our e2?
I downloaded  doom wad from official rockbox page, it doesn't display the plugin returned error message anymore, however when i select play now, it crashes and the only way to get out is rebooting.

and a tech question........
when I need to reboot, could i just refresh, because it is very annoying to be constantly rebooting every time that i need to reboot. is refreshing the same a s rebooting but without turning off  the phone?

Linksys create symlinks for E2 root on ezxlocal/download/mystuff, so when rockbox/media finder try to create database, it trapped in unlimited loop. Because when it found the symlinks (that point to E2 root), it started to search from the root again, then it found the symlinks on ezxlocal/download/mystuff again, and this sequence repeated forever. That's why...   
Well, CMIIW.
