Hi, forgive the most likely easy question but I'm stumped (I'll probably say this for the next week). 

 

I've created my USB Flash drive and I'm able to boot into the gui. When I log in it opens Firefox to 'localhost' but can't connect. 

 

When I open up terminal and do an 'ifconfig' I have my IP address, 192.168.1.99, show up under br0 and eth0 . From my Mac and Window machine I can ping the IP but I still can't connect to the webserver either locally or remotely on the LAN.

 

Ideas? I went through and edited the network.cfg in /config/ on the flash drive and set the static IP. I've also tried this on two different USB drives as well. 

 

Thanks for the help

Type    diagnostics    on the command line and that will write the diagnostics file to the   logs  directory/folder of the Flash Drive.  Upload that file with your next post.

Are you sure the USB drive label is UNRAID?

@jonathanm I'm sure as it wouldn't let me make the USB bootable until I changed it. 

 

@Frank1940 Here are the logs

 

Thanks for the help. I'm hoping it's just something dumb I forgot to do or fat fingered.

I found this in the log file:

Jun  2 08:35:15 Tower kernel: FAT-fs (sda1): bogus number of reserved sectors
Jun  2 08:35:15 Tower kernel: FAT-fs (sda1): Can't find a valid FAT filesystem

I suspect that the Flash Drive is not formatted in FAT32 or you have more than one partition on it. 

Thanks. I'll reformat and try again. 

@Frank1940 That was the problem. So strange, for some reason it was formatted NTFS. 

 

Thanks for the help

If it a large capacity Flash Drive, NTFS is often used as FAT32 has 4GB file size limitation.  (Most folks wouldn't be able to figure why they couldn't save a larger file than that to their Flash Drive when there is plenty of space...) 

Because FA(R)T32 is a prehistoric Stone Age Filesystem from 1996
