[SOLVED] Preclear Disk can not write to USB

[McFex]

Hi unRAID people,

 

I am new to unRAID, just setting up my arrey.

After preclearing my first disk Preclear Disk reports the following.

 

Looks like everything is fine with the disk, but what's with the last part about the Input/output error?

Why can't it create a directory?

Is there an issue with permissions and if yes, why?

And finally - how can I fix it, if it is indeed a problem?

 

Thanks in advance for helping,

McFex

/boot is your flash drive. Sounds like you may have a problem with flash.

 

Go to Tools - Diagnostics and attach the complete Diagnostics ZIP file to your NEXT post in this thread.

Thank you for answering.

 

I just encountert another error related to this post

which means you are probably right.

 

I'll spare me the troubleshooting in this case and just go for another newer and better USB stick.

Diagnostics would be a way to confirm.

That may not solve the problem.

 

Be sure to boot from USB2 port.
