November 18, 20187 yr Hello, I'm on 6.6.5. I've just had to reboot my unRAID box and, after the restart, the hostname is "Tower" and the machine has a self-assigned IP address i.e 169.265.x.x. All configuration is gone, by the looks of it. I do have a flash backup but it's on S3 and not easily accessible (but it IS accessible if that's the only way to fix this - it's just not my preferred method). Why would this happen? I've found another post and have run "diagnostics" from the command line. I'll upload that when I can get the file (I'm on mobile now). In the meantime are there any known reasons for this? Thanks Edited November 19, 20187 yr by digitalformula Marked as resolved
November 18, 20187 yr Check your flash device for corruption. You also may move the flash device to a different USB port, preferably USB2. Some users have issues when using a USB3 port.

It did actually turn out to be the USB port, although not a change from USB 3 to USB 2. I just used a different one - motherboard rear panel instead of case front panel. Still USB 3. Working now, thankfully. Thanks @bonienl.
