Once you have root you never want to do any official OTA updates. If one is released then just wait for a rooted version to appear.
Based on your build # I assume you rooted and then stopped? Or if you tried any custom ROMs you went back to that ROM? The 1.17 OS is what we get knocked back to during the root process. I only mention it because I'm surprised that you've been running that for any length of time without issues.
You have a few flashes ahead of you to get up to speed.
First you want to flash OMJ v1.7 ROM1.
http://vegasden.net/OMJ/ROMs/PC36IMG.zip
It comes in the PC36IMG file form so you just put it on your card as is and boot into bootloader (Power off, then on while holding Volume down). The file will be read automatically.
Once that is completed you will want to continue onto OMJ's latest ROM from Post #1 as well as the radio and wimax upgrades.
Put all the files on your card and flash in this order
ROM/radio/wimax.
After that is all done you should be Froyoized.

I tried unmounting the SD card also, but nothing has worked so far.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Is that the only app you cant download?
Try going to Menu/Settings/Applications/Manage Applications/All and find Market.
Select that and Clear data and cache.
You will have to re-accept the licensing agreement but that may take care of it for you.
That worked for me when I've had other issues with the Market.
