B2 not booting after update Bubba 2 software version 2.4.1

Hi,

I updated my B2 according the instructions in the wiki to Excito Bubba 2 software version 2.4.1. I made the changes in the config file for keeping the data partition.

However, B2 is not properly booting. It keeps blinking at 1Hz all the time.



Any suggestions?

yes. seems you got same or similar issue i had.
consider my thread. especially the last Post with the fstab file mutation.

question is, how to find a way to acess bubba over ssh: well shortly how i have done it:
1) set up an hdd with another bubba|2 installation.
2) connected it over esata with the troubling one.
3) booted up

Well,

I do not know if this is right. Well I had a RAID system running. It never worked so I made regular backups. This means my data is safe. So I do not bother. However, I want my bubba running. This is very unpleasing.

So I wonder if there is another way as I do not want to buy a hdd, open bubba and replace the old one and so on. The disk worked until this morning so it would really be strange if it is somehow affected.

The first install I tried with the options of keeping the data-partition. Then after shutting down bubba with the on/off-button I tried the regular re-install. It keeps now blinking for 3 hours.

PS: I have no LVM running.

Is there any trick? Holding the power-button for more than 5 seconds after plugin in power? Anything?

I think ssh would work but how is this version addressed?

Ok, I give it a 3rd try, now with a usb-stick freshly from the retailer and a fresh Re-Install-Image. Now its partitioning. Sounds good so far.

Ok, must have been the stick and/or the *.zip file. Everything ran through.

Solved (this part)
