drkduncan Posted December 8, 2022 Share Posted December 8, 2022 I have a somewhat unusual situation in that my system is still currently up and running, but has a corupted flash drive. I have attached the diag here. Is there anything I can do to backup my config while it is currently still running so that I dont have to rebuild from scratch when I reboot? demonic-diagnostics-20221208-1007.zip Quote Link to comment
Solution JorgeB Posted December 8, 2022 Solution Share Posted December 8, 2022 See if you can still access /boot, if yes make a copy of /boot/config, if not rebooting might bring the flash drive back, if it doesn't try running chkdsk on it. Quote Link to comment
drkduncan Posted December 9, 2022 Author Share Posted December 9, 2022 Unfortunately I could not access /boot but I was able to recover it via plugging it into another pc and running chkdsk. I had to reboot twice to get everyhting back in working order, but I am back up and running (and backup has been taken - lesson learned). I think the source of the problem was probably upgrading, then forgetting to reboot, then upgrading again a couple weeks later. Anyways - all is well and @JorgeB - thanks for your reply! 1 Quote Link to comment
