Bubba 2 can not find disk
Posted: 01 Feb 2009, 16:10
Bubba 2 had been working well for past few months, until this morning.
1. I can log-in as Admin and it tells me that the 500 Gb drive is there (and how much space left), BUT when you go to the Disk tab --- the SATA disk is NOT shown.
2. SO, off to try the Rescue instructions.
3. I edited the Bubba.cfg on my USB stick (change to 0 to prevent Install)
• I have a DHCP server (Linksys Router) on my network -- so Bubba Two can use this to obtain an IP address automatically.
• Moved Ethernet connection from Bubba Two's LAN port to the WAN port.
to your DHCP server.
• Checked the Client list of the DHCP server to determine IP address assigned (192.168.1.105)
• Used PuTTY established a SSH connection to this IP address (192.168.1.105).
• Using the user name "greg" and password "***",
I was able to establish a SSH connection to Bubba Two (BUBBA).
The username: 'root' and password: 'excito' did NOT work.
• Here is the actual interactive session (in quotes).
Thoughts? /// for next steps???
