Problem after doing os reinstall

Hi.
I did a OS Reinstall on my 314 to manage to get into the frontview, because it did not work.
What happened when i used the os reinstall is that it came up with this error message "err: disk contains data"

What to do? I don't want to do a factory reset and lose all my data.

  • Arovik,
    The problem is what happened to crash Frontview before the OS Reinstall.

    Did you add disks that
    (a) were formatted on a different NAS, with a different OS?
    (b) had data on it.?

    Support, if they get SSH, access may advise removing a disk, and reboot.

    Regards, Marto
  • All i did was doing an OS reinstall. No new disk (or used) was installed before this happened.
    What i did was installing CUPS for printing. This might have caused the issue...
