April 4, 201016 yr Have had my system up and running smooth for well over a year and a half now. Just upgraded to the newest version the other day and all went well...or so I thought. I needed to move my system today and in the process, I removed a video card I have in my mobo that I no longer needed. When I tried to reboot to the new 4.5.6, i noticed that my bios was reset so I had to point the boot order to the flash drive.... and ever since then, I have been locking up right where bzroot is trying to load. the first one bzimage or whatever loads fine, but the second one ust goes on and on. Based on readin here in the forums, this is what Ive tried so far to no avai... 1. Restore all my previous settings from a backup i had made before i upgraded 2. Downloaded the appropriate syslinux tool, and ran that 0 no difference 3. reformatted flash drive - with hp tool, manually - nothing reformatted drive with windows ytiuity 4. reformated frive 5. add the few lines recommended by Joe regaridn the ssyslinux.conf file and acpi I did the above over and over and over and Im desperately seeking assistance. I dont even know where to start troubleshooting this bzroot thing - coud it be a hardware issue at all -ie: bad memory? thanks fellas.

As of this writing, the latest version is 4.5.3. Here are a few suggestions to start you off... The file you downloaded may have been corrupted. Check its checksum: "unRAID Server 4.5.3.zip" (56,395,640 bytes) md5sum: F341B9392F0E28C0D8BC27011C60F580 How did you upgrade? Did you just copy bzimage/bzroot over your network, without unplugging the USB key from your server? (that would be the right way) Or did you move the USB key to a different computer for that? If so, were you careful to "safely eject" the USB key? Unplugging it without "safely eject" can corrupt its file system. What will happen if you restore your previous bzimage/bzroot? Will the server work like it used to? (BTW, what was your previous version?)
April 4, 201016 yr coud it be a hardware issue at all -ie: bad memory? No need to ask us that. Your answer is as simple as selecting "memtest" from the boot menu.
