Problem description:

I have a strange Problem since a couple of weeks:
My XBian boots normaly and recognizes my external HDD without problems. But when I start to transfer files onto my external HDD, after the first 5 or 6 files I get an Error that says:

Code:

Writing failed: The filesystem is only readable

The only way to gain access again is to reboot the complete system.
Doing a "umount /media/gigastore" work, but I can't remount the HDD
When I do "mount /media/gigastore" it says

Code:

mount: can't find /media/gigastore/ in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab

As far as I know I did not change anything besides doing updates with
apt-get update && apt-get upgrade

Any ideas?

It is better to do all upgrades via xbian-config as this sorts out dependencies better than apt-get... However.

1) Check the permissions of the HDD - ls -al Should be rwxrwxrwx (777)
2) How are you copying the files? What command and from where?
3) Have you "ticked" the box in XBMC -> xbian-config -> XBMC -> "Shares should be World......"
4) Post the output of dmesg via http://www.pastebin.com

No need to post xbmc.log at the moment.

Problem solved: I changed the USB-cable..

Now everything works again as it used to
