Hey guys and merry xmas !!!


I had few power outage (6) last night and looks that my server didn't like it.
I am running Freenas 8.0.2 on an HP NL36 Microserver.

I have access to the console and it get stuck at some point of the boot ...
The only way to boot properly is to boot in verbose mode when grub is asking me the boot question....


I have a few questions:

-Is it possible to make a brand new Freenas 9 USB stick and then import my old volume to it ?
-Is it possible to change the default boot on my Freenas 8.0.2 ?


I would like to secure my storage and by secure I mean I would have a copy of it ... What would you guys recommend to duplicate my datas on my freenas volume ??? These datas are VERY VERY critical for my wife and I

Thanks for the help and merry xmas again !

Rebuild FreeNAS usb with FreeNAS 8 and reload your config.. If you don't have a config saved you'll have to reconfigure FreeNAS and re-import your pool.. I would then upgrade to FreeNAS 9 if your hardware will support it..
