Well I'm switching to unorthodox methods now... Mark's fidsift.sh is currently running, and I'm going to flash to v3 alpha to see if that helps. I agree, it's really weird. I think the size of the database file was real small, the size of the database3 file after upgrading to v3 alpha was around 7k, so that's obviously an empty database.
