ReadyNas 104 - stuck with error message 'boot from USB failed'
hi, my Nas which worked completley fine until now is suddenly (without any specific impact, but i believe there was a general power failure in the city) showing the message 'boot from USB failed'. ...
Hi - thank you for your quick reply!
I had put the 6.10.3 on the usb drive initially. then the debug error message was shown. I have found only one previous version on the netgear site - 6.10.2., but also with this the same problem and the same error message - no idea how the raidar shows 6.2.4, as I didn't boot from the usb to this version and I was always doing the firmware updates on a regular base, so can't be that there was such an old firmware installed before the problem was arising...
any idea what i can do? or with which firmwares before 6.10.2 I can retry, and where i can obtain them?
thanks a million, Guido
The mention of 6.2.4 is coming from the boot recovery files, not what's on the internal flash.
The code needed to do boot recovery doesn't tend to change a lot over time.
Entering the debug state indicates that USB Boot Recovery failed at some point.
