mount_block_root +267 error RN516 out of warranty by 2 months
Owned and running my 516 since 2013. A true work horse.
I went to move the unit, properly shut it down, for some construction being done in my basement.
Plugged it in, turned it on, now...
So after going through 8 USB drives and a LOT of reboot attempts while plugging in the HDMI to a screen, so I could see when the BIOS triggered boot setup, the reFLASH WORKED!!!!!
So, for anyone who gets this error, definitely be persistent using the recovery utility to make a USB drive that works for re-flash.
Hello Homer,
I got EXACTLY the same issue ! Could you be so kind to indicate me how you prepared your USB boot as I followed very carefully their procedure but it do not work at all.
I used their Recovery tool, I loaded the right (supposed to be) ReadyNASOS-6.10.0-x86_64 ; I plugged a screen + keyboard to make sure the boot priority is on USB : nothing ! I even used the USB autoboot formatter Rufus : nada. Was in your case their official Recovery tool enough to do the job ? Do you think I have to change for other USB keys (I already used 3) ?
Did you just follow their recovery procedure (launching their "usbrecovery" little tool (please see capture) ?
Allways problems with netgear...
Thanks for your help if you can !
