Firmware update, stuck at "Booting... Update FW"

Firmware update, stuck at "Booting... Update FW"

Just tried to upgrade to 6.7.3 using the GUI

Takes a long time on Updating FW, then tries to startup but process gets stuck at 79%, then says failed startup, retry startup, continues like this.

 

If I push the power button once the display indicates fvbackup-g.servi

 

Booting into read only mode leads to the message "Updating FW" for a long time then boot gets stuck at 75% with retry startup repeatedly.

Only one app - Logitech media server running.

 

Unble to download logs through RAIDar

 

Everything is backed up but I'd really like to avoid  having to reset.

 

Advice?

Re: Firmware update, stuck at "Booting... Update FW"

If you have updated to 6.7.3 and ran into this issue please try USB Boot Recovery (note for those using RAIDiator-x86 systems such as the Pro 6 you'll need to use the RAIDiator-x86 4.2.x USB Boot Recovery tool with the OS6 firmware renamed to RAIDiator-x86-something) with ReadyNAS OS 6.7.4 which is now available!

 

If you have not yet upgraded please upgrade to 6.7.4 rather than 6.7.3. If your system has already been fixed I would still suggest updating to 6.7.4 the normal way using the web admin GUI.

Obviously it is the root partition, but how to sort out?
