Need some help please, server not booting


Recommended Posts

I returned from a trip last night to find that my always on server (used primarily for media streaming) was not working.  I restarted it and it appears to boot fine until it says

 

VFS: Insert root floppy and press ENTER

 

I have never seen that before.  I press enter and it puts up a couple of lines of text/code and then just stops.

 

Please help!  My kids are going to kill me if they cant watch their shows

Implication is that the flashdrive has some corruption on it.  

 

Toss it into a windows box and check the filesystem on it.

 

If that doesn't get you anywhere, download unRaid again from Limetech's website, and overwrite all the bz* files in the root of the flash with ones from the downloaded zip and try it again.
