B3 USB recovery and purple light

Post by gogo »

Hi. I've been ignoring my B3 server for the pas few months, and found out I had to do some recovery work. I followed instructions (set up a USB partitionned key with FAT32, unzipped everything in install/, plugged the key in the B3, pushed the rear button before and while powering the B3 server, had a green light which after a while turned purple... and has stayed purple for the last 24 hours).

Is there anything more I could do on the software side of things? Or should I resign myself to go fetch a screwdriver?

so you tried running our standard installer (no config modifications?) and it still does not boot afterwards? (purple light = booting..)

This usually means that the disk is not well, sorry...
