Readynas Pro RNDP6000 upgrade fail.

Yesterday while moving files around I noticed that Netgear said the new 6.10.10 was out. Cool reboot to upgrade and boom won't boot. I turn it off and on it goes into safe mode. I let it sit for a bit thinking maybe it needs a new start. I then go ahead and hit the power button, let it ask for power again to shut down. After that I wait again and turn it on. It'll go to about 99% sometimes only 96% as I've done this a few times. Now, out of curiousity sake I think maybe upgrade issue and so I pull all drives out. It boots into safe mode, I reboot it and then the system finally goes and boots. I then let it install leaving the drives out as I did t wanna potentially lose data. That finishes and I'm able to browse the os. Good deal, shut it down, reinsert the drives and now and I'm back to sitting at 99%. It has now sat like this for 2 hours or more. Thoughts?

    You could try booting using the option to skip the volume check.

      How would I skip that? I let it sit over night trynna boot and we're still sitting at 99%. Can I boot the system with the drives pulled and then insert them? Will that corrupt the data?

        You make that selection via the reset button menu at boot time.

         

        No, you cannot boot and then insert the drives.  That is a very good way to make data recovery impossible.
