RNDP6000 booting ... and the it stucks on boot
While the RNDP6000 working, suddenly, the device was no longer reachable via Network. On the device itself, the display was dark, and Button for shutting down, was out of response. So, I had to shut down the NAS manually by disconnecting the power. :o(
After 10 sec.,I restarted the NAS, and in the display booting was shown, FS check is OK, and the empty squares are filled with the HDD-Numbers. but the "booting ..." message is still there.
What have I done until yet?
I have another RNDP6000. I changed the HDD to the other device. And on this is the same effect booting ...
then I started the BootMenue and reinstalled the OS again (2.4.27)
I checked the Memory, without any changes.
Does anybody know what to do?

AND:
if I remove all HDDisks, I can access the NAS via telnet on the 192.168.168.168 networkaddress
if I try telnet with HDD loaded, telnet ist neither possible on 192.168.168.168 nor on the "normal - local-IP-Address (10.100.xxx.xxx)
Do you have a scratch disk (not part of the array, and one you are willing to re-format)?
If so, try doing a fresh install with just that disk installed. If it works (my guess is that it will), then the problem is definitely with the disks.
If you have a windows PC, then try testing each disk with vendor tools (seatools for seagate, lifeguard for western digital).
Note you should label them by slot, so you can properly restore them later on.
No, I have no scratch-Disk (at the moment). in the tech mode the Device is via IP reachable. How can I copy the files vial telnet to my local computer (Mac)?
Or, how to mount a Mac-Drive and copy the data.
