TomT Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Hi, I upgraded to 4.6 for a few weeks now and it has been running smoothly until this morning. I was copying some files into the unraid server and suddenly it was unresponsive. The only thing I can do is to reboot. But each time I see this error message on the console (see attached pictures). It says kernel panic. Didn't know what happened, I also pulled the flash drive to check on another computer. Now when I reboot, I am stuck at "Verifying DMI pool data....." I have tried using another flash drive (with uinlicensed) and bios flashes, nothing works. I think I have 2 problems now; Kernel panic and DMI error. Updated: When I unplugged all the SATA cable from the Mobo, unraid loaded but went back to Kernel Panic screen and stuck again. Please provide any suggestions I may take next. Help, I am stuck! THANKS! Link to comment

TomT Posted January 5, 2011 Author Share Posted January 5, 2011 Ok... here are the steps I took to resolved this headache To start, the computer was stuck at Verifying DMI Pool Data screen -Remove all SATA cable to HDD -Computer booted to Kernel Panic screen and stuck again. This time, I stopped the loading of Unraid OS and and did the memtest. -Results were full of errors -Started troubleshooting to isolate the bad memory and found one stick which is bad. -Pull bad memory out and left with 3GB -Reboot and everything loaded -Doing Parity check now Hopefully this will help someone else with this same problem. Thanks gdaschk for your prompt reply. I wouldn't get to the memtest until I pulled all the sata cable out. Link to comment
