Pb after power failure

Hi,

The electric power was shut down in my appartment this afternoon and unfortunately my Bubba didn't appreciate it :(

When i came back the led was on but i couldn't access it neither ping it.

I tried to reboot it by pressing the button.
It did shutdown.
I rebooted it.
Same situation: led is on but nothing more... no access ... no ping

I formated a usb key (fat16).
I dowloaded the minimal image, checked the md5 and copy the bubba.img on the key.
I shutdowned the bubba, unplugged the power, inserted the key, pressed the button and plugged the power back.

The led is blinking but the ping to 192.168.0.50 (or to 192.168.1.99 - usual address) is not working.

Any idea ?

If it boots (LED solid lit) everything is OK with your bubba, it must have to do with your IP number. Perhaps your router has given it a new IP number? Try this:

- Can you reach http://bubba?
- Check your router log to see what IP number it has given Bubba?
- Regarding the minimal image I'm not sure if ping should work. Have you tried ssh:ing to it? 192.168.0.50 is the correct ip.

Hope it helps..

Sorry for the late....

I let the bubba with the LED solid lit yesterday evening. It was unavailable.
Tonight when i came home it was ok ... up and running with all the services

I suppose this long delay was useful for something.... maybe checking the file system ? As it's a big hard disk - 750 Gb - it mey explain the time it took.

Sorry for this false alarm ... and thanks for the advices.

Btw, when are you planning the Bubba2 ?
