boot issue by moving /var to disk on rn102
i moved /var directory under /data, and made a softlink to /var, then when i reboot my nas, i found the management page can't be accessed, seems the http & https service don't start, and also sshd service is failed too.
i have tried the bootup menu, OS reinstall option, but it doesn't take effect. i can get ping reply from the nas.
is there anyway to recover my nas, or just reset to factory default ?

Why did you move it to the data volume?

You should see a link saying something like "1 new message" just to the right of the User Control Panel link at the top of this page.
