Okay. I ended up with this error about 15 minutes after I first powered this bad boy up. I don't know what you were doing, but I was trying to change the default language to english as I had seen elsewhere on this board. At the same time, my charger quit. And when I say the same time, I thought they were part of the same problem. They were not, at least for me.To fix this, I had to locate the latest firmware upgrade right here (
http://slatedroid.com/index.php?topic=367.0) and install it. And it *did* fix it. The first post has instructions on how to install. It took me about 15 minutes, after which you remove the SD card and let it reboot. Bingo! Working slate.Good luck, dude.DanIn case you're interested, I had to open the case, invent an alternate power supply (8 AA batteries) to enable the whole thing to remain powered for the update. You see, I hadn't completed a charge cycle when everything took a dump. While I was updating, I discovered the charger had puked. LOL.
