Readynas NV+ stuck on boot
Hello, I am encountering issues with my Readynas NV+ as it does not boot anymore. When launching it, the "checking quotas" phase ends up well but the booting phase cannot. I can stop the Nas with...
Looks like your system is crashing attempting to download huge log files.
Maybe try a boot that skips the volume check first. If you have a NV+ v1 (4.1.x firmware), the process is on page 23-24 here: http://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/RND2110/Duov1_NV+v1_HW_en_06Dec11.pdf
Fixing a full OS partition requires tech support mode. Are you comfortable/familar with linux shell commands? IF not, try paid Netgear support (my.netgear.com) and ask for "per incident" support.
Thanks for your reply.
I already tried to skip the volume checking. With no success.
Concerning Linux shell commands, I am not an expert. But I already used it many times so it depends on what it consists in...
You'd boot up in tech support mode, and then mount the OS partition.
After that, you'd check the fullness, and (assuming it is full) resolve it by truncating logs and clearing the cache. If you can mount the C volume, then it is also possible to move folders of any add-ons you installed to the C volume, and replace the original with a sym link.
Thank you, I think I understand the procedure.
But I fear I don't know the specific commands to connect... Do you know a good tutorial that I could use please?
Edit : I succeed in connecting to the NAS by using TelNet. But I can't enter commands. Tried 'help' to begin but nothing happened.
