In case it helps anyone, this is what you should now see while booting....

Congrats, welcome, and here's to a new chapter for Limetech. Edit: PC LOAD LETTER ??!?!?

My router is running a DD-WRT variant with OpenSSH on a non-default port, and I use the same tunneling method.

I remotely administer my Unraid server all the time over SSH. http://www.revsys.com/writings/quicktips/ssh-tunnel.html is an example of setting it up.

There's a good chance it didn't even boot properly without a video card - in which case you should be safe to power it off. Did it make any diagnostic beeps when you started it up? Edit: According to Google, that board should give you: 1long, 2 short --- Video adapter error Either video adapter is bad or is not seated properly. Also, check to ensure the monitor cable is connected properly.

Looks like there are both versions - standalone .jar or bundled JRE... ftp://ftp.supermicro.com/utility/IPMIView/

If I remember correctly, the Browser version requires a system wide Java to be installed to run an Applet within the Browser if you want to use the terminal. If you install the standalone utility then it bundles it's own version of Java as a component that is only used by IPMIview. I don't want Java hooked into my system, but I'm OK with it simply being a component of an application, which is why I use the standalone utility. I'm running Windows 7 64-bit.

For stuff like this, I use SSH tunneling. I've never used Subsonic, I suspect if you have SSH running your DD-WRT router, then that would work.

No problem, and I'm pretty sure the docs say you should remove the old file, I just happened to get away with it up to now. If the licence checking code hasn't changed, then likely by reformatting and rewriting the files I changed the arbitrary order the the directory listing was served up, which happened to now put the old key file before the new. Anyway, I just wanted to document my issues to potentially help others, especially as a forum search didn't return anything useful for the "too many devices" error.

OK, I'm up and running, but this was the most painful upgrade yet for me (keeping in mind that all other upgrades from 4.7 to each 5.0 RC's for me have been straight forward). Two issues: 1) As per others, I had to run the "make_bootable.bat" on a Windows PC against the flash drive as otherwise it hung with: I've never had to do that before when upgrading, including 5.0RC9. 2) Unraid wouldn't see all my drives, and I noticed NAS kernel: md: too many devices errors in the syslog. Turns out that in my config folder I had my old plus key in a file called Plus.key.BAK which I hadn't bothered removing when I upgraded to a pro licence ( Pro.key was there too). Maybe the licence check code changed in this release? Anyway, I deleted the renamed Plus.key (which I believe the upgrade instructions tell you to, I was just being lazy because the rename seemed to cause no problems) and all seems OK now.

Fixed now. Is rc9 still available for download anywhere? I'm having big problems with rc10 and as part of my troubleshooting I'd like to revert back.

I've been fighting exactly this all morning. Took the stick out, Windows says it's OK. Re-copied bzroot etc. using Teracopy with verify turned on, still the same problem. What fixed it was copying everything off the USB stick, reformatting it in Windows, copying everything back and running make bootable again.

Just FYI, this should work for you : ftp://ftp.supermicro.com/utility/IPMIView/ (I seem to remember it wasn't obvious to find when I originally looked).

Screen is handy, but I'm so glad I got an IPMI enabled motherboard for my Unraid box as it allows you to connect directly to the console from anywhere. My Unraid box has never had a keyboard, mouse or monitor connected to it at any point in its life.

Your steps are what I did, but I did a parity check also, just before replacing the parity drive...

Another chance for those that missed Newegg or NCIX.. http://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=15_1086_210_212&item_id=042242

Edit: All gone now... ncix still have some for $89.99 as I write this (Thur 10:50pm Eastern) - just ordered one ($5 shipping) http://ncix.ca/products/index.php?sku=66009&vpn=ST3000DM001&manufacture=Seagate&promoid=1030

Thank you!

I have a 5.0-rc8a that is working fine, but I've noticed from several screenshots on these forums that my UI is different. I've attached my UI as mine.jpg and also included an example of another UI that was posted here. Any idea what controls this? Thanks!

Maybe post the syslog for one of the Unraid experts to check over too. When you telnet in, are you doing the ls on the /mnt/diskn name or /mnt/user/sharename ?

Like tr0910, I see odd performance issues when one of the drives gets too full.
