[[6.9.0] Won't boot after 6.8.3 to 6.9.0 update]

Is there a way to reflash the bios, to be sure?

 

Any idea for my server which does not reboot with the emhttpd?

 

Thank,

[[6.9.0] Won't boot after 6.8.3 to 6.9.0 update]

I wanted to update my bios, it's already up to date !

I had to manually stop the server, it was jammed at "Stopping emhttpd", anyone know why?

The microcode of the CPU ? or what ?

Why the update block without these commands ?

 

How can I correct the problem? Just update the bios ?

I don't even know what these commands do.

but it made the update from 6.8.3 to 6.9.0 work

 

My question should have been, what are these commands for?

 

Subsequently, I will update my bios.

[System boots from 6.9.0 but wont reboot!]

Same problem, see my post

I've have an issue with the microcode that's in bzroot causing it to hang at "bzroot... OK".  Running on a Supermicro X10 MB with a Xeon E5 V3.

 

If you want to try without the microcode, after installing the 6.9 update via the GUI, run the following commands before rebooting.

 

cp /boot/bzroot /boot/bzroot-orig
dd if=/boot/bzroot-orig bs=512 skip=$(cpio -ivt -H newc < /boot/bzroot 2>&1 > /dev/null | awk '{print $1}') of=/boot/bzroot

 

Those commands will strip out the microcode.

Solve my problem for 6.8.3 -> 6.9.0, but I'm waiting for the answer for 6.9.0 -> 6.9.1

 

[[6.9.0] Won't boot after 6.8.3 to 6.9.0 update]

I just saw, it's not up to date, I have the penultimate version (one month before).

I don't think it makes a difference.

 

I just don't want to have to go back to 6.9.0 after.

 

Can I run these commands to avoid (in prevention) the problem?

 

Thank, 

[[6.9.0] Won't boot after 6.8.3 to 6.9.0 update]

Based on SeeDrs response, I ran these commands and the 6.9.0 install worked.

cp /boot/bzroot /boot/bzroot-orig
dd if=/boot/bzroot-orig bs=512 skip=$(cpio -ivt -H newc < /boot/bzroot 2>&1 > /dev/null | awk '{print $1}') of=/boot/bzroot

otherwise the boot froze at / bzroot ... OK

 

For 6.9.1, I just want to know if I would be better off doing it to keep myself out of the problem.

 

Thank,

If I want to install version 6.9.1, am I better off running the commands again, before rebooting ?

Don't worry, I know it's stressful. It doesn't happen often... with all updates! 

[[6.9.0] Won't boot after 6.8.3 to 6.9.0 update]

The first time is the one that scares the most.

 

Normally, the files in previous are those at the root of the flash drive.

[[6.9.0] Won't boot after 6.8.3 to 6.9.0 update]

the flash drive contains only the Unraid software.

 

Your data is on your Array

[[6.9.0] Won't boot after 6.8.3 to 6.9.0 update]

Look on your flash drive, during the update, it creates a "previous" directory.

 

Make a backup of everything, before moving the files.

[[6.9.0] Won't boot after 6.8.3 to 6.9.0 update]

back to 6.8.3

[[6.9.0] Won't boot after 6.8.3 to 6.9.0 update]

it is now frozen at /bzroot ... OK

I use the USB Tool for Mac.

And restore the config folder.

[[6.9.0] Won't boot after 6.8.3 to 6.9.0 update]

Stupid question, can I keep my server on, remove the flash drive, redo the flash drive with the USB Tool, copy the "config" directory, put it back and restart the server ?

[[6.9.0] Won't boot after 6.8.3 to 6.9.0 update]

I wanted to make a new flash drive, but when I transfer the license, my old usb key becomes blacklisted.

I therefore prefer not to replace my flash drive...

 

I saw that there were plenty of files on my flash drive. Can I delete all files beginning with "._" ?

Try redoing the flash drive, backup current flash, redo it using the USB tool, restore the config folder from the backup.

I used the usb tool to create a new one.

When you say to "restore the config folder from the backup.

Is there a special tool or I just copy and overwrite files on the USB drive?

Subsequently, for the registration key, do I have to restore it? or test everything before ?

 

Thank,

[[6.9.0] Won't boot after 6.8.3 to 6.9.0 update]

You can try, on the usb key, the installation creates a previous directory for the previous version.

[[6.9.0] Won't boot after 6.8.3 to 6.9.0 update]

For the moment, I have returned to 6.8.3

 

I will try later

 

Thank,

[[6.9.0] Won't boot after 6.8.3 to 6.9.0 update]

I try the manual method.... same thing !
