trahma Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 After upgrading from 6.6.7 through the web gui to 6.8.3 my system is unresponsive after booting. Specifically my keyboard freezes up and I'm seeing the error: /dev/disk/by-label/UNRAID not found The system continues to boot and gives a prompt showing it's using the hostname TOWER and not the hostname the system was set to. Looking at the USB drive, it doesn't appear that any log files have been updated in the log path. I'm at a loss as to what my next steps here should be. Any direction would be appreciated.

trahma Posted October 5, 2020 Author Share Posted October 5, 2020 So it turns out the issue was that I was plugged into a USB3 slot. Was the USB2 requirement added at some point? Because it was absolutely working on a USB3 port on 6.6.7. Quote Link to comment
trurl Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 It's not a requirement exactly, but it has been observed that USB3 disconnects are more likely than USB2 for some, and USB3 speed has no advantage in this application since it is just loading the OS into RAM at boot and not reading/writing much to flash after that.
