ReadyNAS NV+ v1- boot troubleshooting
Hi, I've read all the boot hang threads in the forum and have a game plan to troubleshoot my own boot hang, but before I start, I want to have a plan a, b, c, etc. and I have a couple of questions to ...
The troubleshooting plan is good. :)
3) If still no successful boot, try an OS install from USB image. This is where one question is. I don't upgrade firmware if I'm happy with the one I have, and I was, so it's on a very old one- v4.1.7. I don't see where I could get an image of this version anymore. So if I upgrade to the latest radiator version in this step, will that screw up the readability of my good x-raid drives when I re-install them? Or will this be ok to do?
-if the drives detected that there is a new FW on the flash, it should automatically upload it on the drives. However, if this does not happen, you can also perform another OS reinstall.
4.1.7 is really old, you can find it here though:
