ReadyNAS 104 - Update from 6.9.5 to 6.10.0 problems.
Hi.
In my RNS 104 I had installed the firmware 6.9.5 patch 1 release and I downloaded and installed version 6.10.0. But at the time of the reboot after the upgrade the boot reaches 99% and then...
Sure. Twice, but the result is always the same. The boot stops at 99% and the power button LED continues to flash. As it happens for that of the activity. The discs make the classic noise of being active. It looks like the system is doing a rebuild.
I had exactly the same symptoms tonight, after updating from UI.
There must a glitch in the upgrade process.
The easiest way to get out of the situation was to reinstall the firmware by SSH.
And how do you do thius re-install via SSH please?
I have the same issue - wasted about 3 hours so far on this.
- There’s a post on it somewhere, can find it later if needed.
But essencially:
- log in via SSH as root
- wget the update file
- unzip it
- rename the .img file to <update file naming standard I cant remember now>
- pray to the digital gods
- rebootProblems solved with a factory reset. All data had previously been saved to other disks.
But now I have another problem.......
Until the previous firmware versions in case of power loss due to power failure, NAS restarted without any problems by going online after a few minutes. Now, with 6.10.0, instead, in this case, after booting, the system performs a new resynchronization of the data! So about four days of work for a simple jump of the electric current!
Why all this ??
