RN10400 NAS won't boot HELP

Thanks for everyones help,

At this point I think using paid support is best, Hopefully there is a decent way to get it booted and working. If it was my device I would just do it myself, but with my guess being other configuration issues to arise I am sure it will be a pain.

I need to backup the data right away after getting it working.

Hi StephenB Marc_V 

After attempting to get paid customer support and having multiple issues with whatever gateway processor netgear uses I phoned technical support and waited for about 2 and a half hours, talking to someone then booking a call back with a specialists. 

Call back never came and the support ticket was gone from my support page.

So 24 hours later I decided to make this work on my own, my plan was to make 2 attempts to get this working and then remove the drives and hopefully use reclaime to get the data. I wanted to post my experence as it was difficult getting all the information in one post as it took me a fair bit of time to get everything sorted.

I booted the device in tech support mode "Instructions for booting into tech support mode are on pages 28-29 here: http://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/READYNAS-100/ReadyNAS_%20OS6_Desktop_HM_EN.pdf

I used putty to telnet in to the device and used root and infr8ntdebug as the password and started the chroot

# rnutil chroot

 Using df command I could see that the drive was at 100%.

# df

I attempted to rm any temp files from clamav as was suggested in posts and the disk was still 100%

# cd /var/lib/clamav
# rm -r clamav-*.tmp

After that i attemped to go hunting 

# cd /var/logs
# ls -l  

I deleted the large files I could find.

# rm -r user.log.old
# rm -r user.log
# rm -r syslog
# rm -r auth.log.old
# rm -r daemon.log
# rm -r daemon.log.old

 I now have 88% used and have been able to boot the NAS and access the web interface. 

Why would the system not clear old log files and am I going to have more problems in the future with this device? I expect a production model to not get filled up with log files over the years. Am I missing something? Can Someone educate me on why this happend?  I would think a production model would have a cronjob to rotate logs?

What else could I clean up in the root partition?

 My plan is now to do a backup to another drive and put it back in service. Maybe do an update after I do that.  What Other Maintance should I do before putting it back in service?

Thanks in advance!!
