Flash Drive bad? or configuration problem?


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

A few days ago I was unable to get to the webui or see the tower from my router using fing-desktop.

 

I believed originally that the USB was going bad -

- I backed up the flash-drive, got a new flash-drive, erased and formated (fat - not exfat) it using disk-utility (mac) and naming it "UNRAID", copied the files to the new flash drive and did the steps on the 'make bootable (mac)' executable, plugged the flash drive in the same port as usual (USB2) and booted up - router and browser cant see the tower.
- Next step was to try different ports, USB2 and USB3 - None worked.

- Then I reformated the new flash drive with the latest stable download of unraid and booted it up - IT WORKED!!! but I was scared to load the drives just incase it screwed up the array.
- So then I copied (from backup) just the config file over (not overwriting) and then tried booting up - DIDINT WORK!

- Then Copied the config (from backup) file to the flash drive (overwrote everything in the config file), booted it up - DIDINT WORK!

 

so idk what to think anymore or know what to do next.

 

Thanks for the help in advance!
