Read only file system

[cs_]

So has anyone managed to f*ck their bash bunny up so much that the entire file system goes read only?

Things I have tried

- Forcing recovery (twice)
- fschk
- crying

[cs_]

I continued to force restore and it resolved itself after the 4th time.

Hello,

I would like to add to this issue.

Love the tool so far, very cool. Can't wait until we work out all the bugs.

I also encountered a readonly file system, the bash bunny is plugged in on the arming mode, blue LED flashing.

dmesg reveals the following when booting up:

[  388.651445] usb-storage 1-1.2:2.2: USB Mass Storage device detected

[  430.945538] FAT-fs (sdb): error, fat_get_cluster: invalid cluster chain (i_pos 0)

 

I am able to use the serial connection, and have attempted to force a recovery.

Is it safe to run fchk/disk or gparted on this partition while in arming mode? Formating it may resolve the issue, but I do not undertand the full implications of doing so.

Anyone who can offer advice it would be appreciated.

Went ahead with a fschk, results are as follows:

Did not seem to resolve it.

Still loads in error. Help!

If I knew how to edit my last post I would not be making so many...

I went ahead and used gparted to reformat the mounted drive at a FAT32, and recopied the file system from the github.

So far so good. I tried the captive portal payload, and all is working well.

I fear the original problem has to with the tool installation, Ill work on that next.

I also ran into this, likely while doing the "install_tools" as well. 

This StackOverflow helped me a lot: http://askubuntu.com/questions/563764/usb-devices-showing-a-read-only 

 

TL;DR: 

• Unmount the BashBunny drive (/dev/sdb or /dev/sdc or /dev/sdd or etc...): sudo umount -f /dev/sdb
• Fix the drive: sudo dosfsck /dev/sdb

From what I understand the bunny is pre partitioned yes? And there is no room or slot for adding memory, your reformatting your recovery partitions without realizing one of those are reserved for recovery !!?! Maybe I'm wrong
