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 ...
Stephen, thanks. I do have backup for the critical data. It does power up with 1, 3, 4 and even the old disk 2 which is showing SMART errors. Since it was bad memory I want to pick up where I left off: Replacing the old disk 2 with the new disk which was used to power up with the new memory.
You mentioned there's a way (maybe longer time-wise) to zap the partitions using Frontview. I have plenty of time. The NV+ has been unused since August. I just want to get it back online. Obviously I want to make sure I have all the non-critical data saved. That would be easier than putting the "new" hard drive in my tower and zapping them that way.
Question: Should I remove 1, 3 & 4 from the NV+ and leaving the new disk 2 as the only disk to remove the partitions? After that I should be good to go, correct?
How do I safely remove the partitions using Frontview? Shares > Share Listing > Delete? After that the disk will be clean?
I noticed that the current disks and the new disk are all using the same firmware 4.1.8.
(This is really simple but typing all this crap makes it seem more difficult than it is. :D )
