Stuck at "BOOTING CHECK FS: 0%"
I've had this ReadyNAS on my shelf, gathering dust for the past year, because I've gotten so frustrated with it, and I've tried like the dickens to work around this problem. Thing is, there are GB of...
What ReadyNAS model do you have? If it is an NV+, then please read this post before identifying it as a v1 or a v2: http://www.rnasguide.com/2012/01/09/how-to-tell-whether-i-have-a-duo-v1-or-duo-v2-or-nv-v1-or-nv-v2/
Also, you can try removing all the drives (labeling by slot) and powering up the NAS. Then install RAIDar on a PC, and see if it can find it. (It's status should be "no disks" of course).
It's an NV+v3.
I yanked Disk #3, and wonder of wonders, it booted up. Only ... now when I try to access the shares, they appear in the RAIDar panel, they even appear in the web console in a browser when I log in -
But when I try to access them, I get an error message "backup [the name of the share] can't be opened because the item can't be found." When I put Drive #3 back, once again I am stuck on FS: 0%. I put in a "clean" disk. Got the same error message that "the item can't be found."
So I can boot. I can see that the shares are there on two functioning disks (although the disk diagnostics tell me that Disk 1 is accumulating errors and may fail soon). But I still can't access the data on the disks.
Suggestions?
