RN104 Stuck at "Booting..."
My old faithful RN104 running f/w 6.10.9 has encountered a problem which I need some help with:
Initially, it sat say "Booting..." indefinitely (no percentage bar appears). All 4 drive lights are on, the "Act" light is on continuously and the "Power" light is flashing.
I could SSH into it, and discovered that I could make any changes to any files as it came up with "no free space" errors. df -h showed plenty of disk space available however.
Tried to do a firmware reset via USB, but it asked me to Telnet into it for debug and wouldn't accept the root password I'd previously set and now I can't SSH to it any more.
So now I'm stuck...what should I try now?

Can you log into the web ui?
If you can, then download the full log zip file and look in there for clues.

Generally you need to use btrfs commands to determine the actual free disk space on the volume.
