NV+ - Won't Boot, Flashing Lights, Bad Memory? (Solved)
I've been struggling off and on in my spare time trying to get my original NV+ to boot. I had a bad disk and after replacing it things got a bit screwy. I got a Kernel Error so I believed I needed to ...
As it turns out it was the memory. I had to go do some errands and purchased new memory and it works like a charm but I have a question.
When this started Disk 2 was going bad. I attempted to replace it but as luck would have it the bad memory issue occurred at the same time.
I removed all 4 disks and put one new disk in bay 1 to troubleshoot. That disk is now in the NV+ being formatted. It's the only disk installed.
After the formatting is done can I remove that disk, put in disks 1, 3 , 4 and replace the bad disk 2 with the disk that in the NV+ as a "new" disk 2 or is there something I need to do to the "new" disk 2 before I try that?
ie - will the NV+ ignore any info the formatting would put on the new disk and just rebuild my data?
