ReadyNAS BusinessPro (6310) upgrade to OS 6 stuck at Booting 98%
Subject pretty much says it all. It's been stuck at "Booting 98%" for more than eight hours. I've read other posts saying that this upgrade was successful. For those who had success, how long did...

Did you install the Prep add-on before installing the R4toR6 bin?
If not you will need to do a manual factory default via the boot menu
If you did install the Prep add-on at this point you could try doing a manual factory default via the boot menu anyway.
If it still won't come up then I can take a look.

Can you try powering off the system and then booting it again?
If that does not resolving it perhaps try a factory reset (wipes all data, settings, everything) using the boot menu.

OK. I just pressed the on-off button briefly and the display changed to "systemd-quotacheck". Then I pressed it briefly again and it again displayed "Booting 98%."
Should I simply hold it down until it shuts off and then turn it on again?

Yes.
I assume that as you are updating from OS4 to OS6 you have backed up your data.- Blues11Oct 05, 2016Luminary
Yeah. I expected to have to reload (re-backup) all the data from the 516. So, I just rebooted.
It says "Booting..." It went to 90% in less than a minute and then to 92% a minute later. Now, thirty minutes later, it still says 92%. What do you suggest I do next?
