It is possible that you may have a bad update file on your sd card. I have had this error a few times in the past. Try to download the ROM again make sure to give enough time for the file to copy to your sd card and then rename update.zip and try again. Good luck

is your sdcard partitioned in fat32?

hi all.. i have a g1 ,cgmod 4.2.1 flashed with a sigle_update method. now i'm trying to update with cgm updater to a 4.2.4 , but after update download, when i choose to apply the new rom, the g1 reboots in recovery mode, and shows this error :
E:cant mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0) (no such file or directory)
e:cant mount sdcard :cm-updates/update-cm-4.2.4-signed.zip

thanks in advance!!
Something maybe wrong with your SDcard
You can still move the update file to the root of your SD and be able to flash it. No you wont lose google apps
thanks a lot!!! yes i think there is someting wrong with my new sdcard.. maybe wrong partition method... thank you for the reply..

E: cant symlink/system/bin/netstat
E:failure at line 30:
systemlink toolbox system: bin/netstat

Well, one piece of information that could fix this whole problem is the spl. What spl do you have?
spl
I'm useing spl 1.33.2005 , I think it is danger spl.
I think that rom supports ext4 but if it was me, I would try re-partitioning and stopping at ext3. Just a thought. Also I would check the md5 check sum for the download or just re-download. Good luck.
tried
I tried the ext3 and I still get the error for some reason And I know Im a noob but what is MD5
wut size is ur swap partition >?
partition
Fat32 is 512 and swap is 96

[Q] My device won't update, gives some weird SD card error

Hello I am trying to update my current nightly of the CM12 (apr7th) to the latest (apr9th).
I tried from the default About phone > Cyanogenmod updates and also via CyanDelta.
In both cases I get a very weird errors, in the Recovery (CWM).
Via CyanDelta I get:
Waiting for SD Card to mount (20s)
SD Card mounted
Verifying SD card marker
SD card marker not found
Error processing the ROM manager script
Via About phone > Cyanogenmod updates it says:
E: unknown volume for path [@/cache/recovery/block.map]
E: Can't mount @/cache/recovery/block.map
Installation aborted.
This is very weird since the HTC one does not have an SD card slot.
My phone is rooted and the bootloader is unlocked and all those sweet things.
Thank you.
Same issue, can not flash any ROM...:crying::crying:
This happened to me once. I don't remember exactly what I did. I think I ended up flashing a stock RUU. Changing the recovery might also work. If you find the solution, please post it here.
