6.4.1 is released. Who is taking the risk? :)

Hi,
I have to report that it wasn't the solution.
As long as the nas is left alone, it's fine.
As soon as some activity is done on the disk, it freezes.
It hapenned yesterday when downloading a Linux iso image through transmission.
It hapenned again today, when I was copying a 6Gb file to the nas.
It froze mid-copy.
No reaction to the power button, lcd stays black, nothing happens...
But it does answers to pings.
No way to enter a SSH session though.
Is there a way for someone having only osx and linux machines (ie: no computer running windows) to downgrade the nas to 6.2.5?
It was running perfectly fine until I did the update.
I'm pretty annoyed of this whole update mess, I have to admit.
I wish I did read this forum before...

Hi tripy,
We may have to further investigate this issue that you've been experiencing. Kindly attach the logs so we can have a thorough look at what's going on with your ReadyNAS unit. In copying large or small files, if you will do a direct connection between your ReadyNAS and PC, will it froze or complete the copy? With regard to your downgrade question, I apologize but it won't be possible to go back to 6.2.4 or 6.2.5.
Looking forward to your response.
Kind regards,
BrianL
