Booting stucket at 99%

My ReadyNAS is stucked at 99% at boot time, if I press the button on the front I can see that it is trying to run/load fvdropbox.service ....

 

-----------------------------

I have tried telnet: 

>telnet 192.168.137.154
Connecting To 192.168.137.154...Could not open connection to the host, on port 23: Connect failed

 

-----------------------------

I have tried to connect wuth RAIDar but and the status says:

Firmware: 6.5.0

- Management service is offline 

If I try to download the logs it stops at 0% and shows an error.

 

-----------------------------

I have tried the reset button:

When I press the reset button and the backup button the only boot option I get is "Normal" 

 

-----------------------------

I have also tried to create a USB boot stick, with ReadyNAS OS 6 (Marvell), ReadyNAS OS 6 (Annapurna) and ReadyNAS OS 6 (x86), but all fails during boot showing boot error on the lcd screen.

 

Is there any hope for this NAS?!

    To use the boot menu you'd press and hold the reset button, turn the NAS on, keep on holding the reset button till you get a boot menu message. Then release the reset button and use the backup button to scroll through the different boot menu options.

      I did not understand that I needed to release the reset button, before selecting the bootoption with the backup button.

       

      Now I could select reinstall OS.

       

      RAIDar shows: System starting up...

      But it now seems to be stucked at booting and the LCD display shows "upnphttpd.service ..."

       

      The admin password has been changed to default, so I guess the OS was installed.
