Halvliter Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 (edited) After I started the server again after a clean shutdown I get a "Connection refused"-error in my browser. I did several restarts manually, but nothing happened. I connected a monitor and keyboard and all I can see is a blinking cursor after the "BIOS-login-image" (The first image that you get when you turn on a computer, I'm not sure what it is called.) How do I proceed to troubleshoot? 4 GB RAM AMD Athlon 4400 X2 CPU MB: M2N68-AM Plus Sandisk cruser 32 GB Latest UnRAID version Edited October 28, 2019 by Halvliter Quote Link to comment

So you don't even get the boot menu? (Memtest, unRaid, unRaid GUI, etc) Check your boot order in the BIOS firstly Quote Link to comment
Halvliter Posted October 27, 2019 Author Share Posted October 27, 2019 (edited) Thank you for the quick reply. https://imgur.com/a/2d2eshi Normally I can choose "Sandisk cruzer" as a boot option, but not anymore. Edited October 27, 2019 by Halvliter spelling error Quote Link to comment
Squid Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 What I would do is change the battery. Reset the BIOS back to defaults by using the jumper. See if you can then set a proper boot order. Quote Link to comment
Halvliter Posted October 28, 2019 Author Share Posted October 28, 2019 Thank you. I've changed the battery and did a BIOS reset with the jumper. The reset worked (I had to change the date etc...) but I got the same options as before the reset. I was thinking that maybe my USB drive stopped working, but I can see it in the drive list in bios, and the light is flashing. Could one of my harddrives cause this problem, or my cache drive?

Frank1940 Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 I looked at your pictures of the BIOS 'boot' options. It appears to me that your boot device is this: and I would suspect that you would want it to be this: The Apple device appears to be an SSD connected via SATA and not a flash drive. The SanDisk device is most likely a flash drive because it is connected via USB and SanDisk is very large manufacturer of flash drives. Quote Link to comment
Halvliter Posted October 28, 2019 Author Share Posted October 28, 2019 I tried to disconnect all my drives, and then my USB-flash appeared in my boot-options and I could boot UnRAID. Tried to connect all but the Apple SSD, and I could see my harddrives but not my USB-flash. https://imgur.com/a/0jhYsuz Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 On the "hard disk drives" menu you need to select the flash drive to be the 1st disk, after that it will appear on the boot menu. 1 Quote Link to comment
