Sorry to bump an old topic but I had the same problem: installed APT, did an update followed by an upgrade and answered NO on all questions. Result: no more SSH and /admin/ access to my box. Shares did work however. What I did to resolve this problem:
- put the ReadyNAS_USB_Flash_Recovery-4.1.7.img on an USB stick using dd if=ReadyNAS_USB_Flash_Recovery-4.1.7.img of=/dev/sdisk4
- held the power button for 20 seconds to boot from USB
- after 'installing' the new firmware, held the reset button for 5 seconds and re-installed the firmware
And after the reboot, my NV+ came back to live without losing anything! Old passwords were restored and SSH access was granted.
