NV+ boot hangs on checking FS
I have an old Sparc based ReadyNAS NV+. There was a power cut this week and the NAS went down without being shutdown cleanly. It now will not reboot. It hangs, I left it for 24+ hours on "Checking FS"...
I suspect that if you wipe the OS partition you will either get a corrupt root or a factory reset. You could try an OS reinstall. Note you can do this from ssh (the post on that is here: viewtopic.php?f=18&t=62028#p357734). Not sure if that will work from ssh if you do the touch on the linux box, but it seems to me it should (assuming the clocks are close).
The other option is to put in the replacement disk and do a factory reset. You'll need to rebuild the NAS and back-copy the data.
