Won't boot past boot screen

Hi everyone! I'm new here, please don't shout at me!
Basically, I've been rooting and installing recoveries images all night. But I've run into a problem. I was going to flash to the Super-Hybrid HD-Desire ROM by MicroMod777 (link to thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=784260) but it won't install, and now won't boot past the Nexus colour logo with the unlock bootloader padlock symbol at the botom. Here is what I did to get to this stage:
Followed these guides: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Nexus_One:_Full_Update_Guide
http://androidandme.com/2010/01/hacks/video-how-to-unlock-and-root-a-nexus-one/
I then downloaded said ROM and put it in my SD card like it said, and booted into ClockWork from ROM Manager. I tried to flash it, but it didn't work, coming up with this error:
E:Can't mount/dev/block/mmcblk0p2
(File exists)

E:Can't mount/dev/block/mmcblk0p2

E:Can't mount SDEXT:
E:Failure at line 24:
copy_dir PACKAGE:ext SDEXT:
Installation aborted.
I then did a factory wipe, and that didn't work, so I wiped the cache partitions. Nothing worked, always the same error. I also did a restore before I tried to flash for the first time, I've tried to restore that, but it doesn't work either; it also says that it can't mount SD-EXT, but I don't know if this is the error.
I can still get into the bootloader (trackball + power buton) and get to recovery through there, and I saw someone say in a thread here that if you can get into the bootloader it is basically impossible to be bricked. The phone will also not mount when I connect it to the PC, however the PC knows it's there, as I can see the phone, and on fastboot's menu it says 'fastboot usb'.
I hope some of you guys can help me! I really do love my phone, I need it ASAP! Ideally, I'd get onto the ROM I mentioned above, but restoring it to factory settings would also be perfect. Whatever is easier!
Thanks

The problem is that the ROM you flashed doesn't include the dbdata.rfs file. You will be able to extract one from the JM6 ROM from Samfirmware or from the JMG package I put together, here's a link to the post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10892253&postcount=305 You can flash dbdata.rfs directly to your Tab as it is now with Heimdall or otherwise you'll need to flash a ROM package like my JMG one that contains dbdata.rfs with Odin.

E:Can't mount /cache/command - /log and /last_log

Hi all,
Currently running Rom kitchen 2.2 (JVB based), along with fugumod 3.7 normal kernel, and armani modem.
Recently, every time i boot into recovery i get the following lines:
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/command
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
I can use all the functionality of the CWM interface, flashed other roms since etc, and it all works fine. I just get these messages - frustrating.
Im fairly sure they have only been present since flashing to 2.3.3 roms.
Any help as to how i can fix this?
(done a search, can't find anything useful)

I have the same error as you do. Can't restore any backups via CWM on top of that the USB storage mounting doesnt work properly any more. I can mount but windows just hangs when trying to access the internal or external SD.
Any help would be nice! Running Gingerbread too.

Same error here. running Juwes 4.3.1 with fugumod 3.8

I am not 100% sure... but it may be a kernel mismatch with the ROM you are using? Try changing to the Rom suggested Kernel and see if it fixes the issue...

Sounds like what happen to me last week.
check out my thread, hope it helps !

Thanks guys.
Fixed mine by flashing 2.2.1 Rom using PIT file and re-partition via Odin.

I m facing the same problem. Sir please Help...

I had the same problem, I was trying to flash the cyanogen mod 12.1 on my studio 5 c hd. The solution, as answered by the creator from said rom, was to install the wiko base. I'm still configuring the wiko base, if it work i'll report here. But, it's worth trying.
Sorry for my english, it's not my first language.

Download the stock ROM of your phone and flash it via SP flash tool.
And as for recovery only CWM recovery works for the JB version and CTR for KK.

Most of the custom ROMs are based on Wiko rainbow base which supports all recoveries. If you want to flash Custom roms you should flash wiko rainbow v13 stock ROM via SP flash tool.
