USB Recovery
I need to re-flash my ReadyNAS Duo V2. I have tried all of the support and FAQ suggestions that I can find with no result. I cannot access the device either using a web or SSH. It gets an IP address,...
- Netgear tech support sorted it out for me. They were very helpful. I just put the NAS into tech support mode and they fixed it! Working fine ever since.
Can you see it in RAIDar? If so do you see an error message?
Is the NAS able to boot into tech support mode?: How do I access the boot menu on my ReadyNAS Ultra 2, Ultra 2 Plus, or Pro 2, Duo v2?
Are you sure it's a Duo v2 (says that it is a v2 on the front of the NAS).
There is a USB Boot Recovery procedure for the Duo v2. It requires a FAT32 USB key with an initrd.gz, uImage-recovery and e.g. the RAIDiator-arm-5.3.13 firmware on it. It's similar to USB Boot Recovery for the OS6 arm products but using different files.
