comdex Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 (edited) Hi people i did something extremely stupid and as a result broke my unraid installation! Is there any way I can force upgrade/rewrite of all the base files excluding the configurations from console? Or can I make a backup of the configuration somehow and rewrite the usb? thanks in advance Edited September 20, 2018 by comdex Quote Link to comment
trurl Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Could you explain a little more what you did? If we can assume whatever you did didn't mess with the config folder on your flash it should be easy to get going again. The config folder on your flash drive has everything about your configuration, and if you copy it you can prepare the flash as a new install and restore that config folder and everything should be as before.

Yes, for a suitable definition of "burn". Just backup your config folder somewhere, prepare flash exactly as you would for a new install, restore the config folder, put flash in your server and boot.
