My flash drive has failed and I downloaded a copy of flash backup from MY SERVER cloud to a new flash drive, remake flash drive using the creator tool. When I start the server again using the new usb, the web gui prompt me to enter password for root, i tried both my old password and blank but failed to login. I tried deleting the config/passwd file and the problem is still the same. (config/shadow and config/smbpasswd files are absent)
Then I tried remake the flashdrive using an much earlier local copy of the zip file(file created using webgui backup feature), it works well, i can use my old password to login.
As MY SERVER copy of the flash backup is more up to date, is there a way I can use the MY SERVER copy of the flashback up? I suppose that password is not required after restoring from the MY SERVER copy of flash back up. Options?
