helios4 - root file system fail

Featured Replies

Hi my good old helios4 with OMV had been running for few years without big issue.

but it suddenly lost all SATA HDD. OMV shown the 2 HDD are missing.

 

i reboot it and during the boot i saw couple of error, failure... so  decided to reinstall armbian by a new SD card.

 

but tried 2 new cards with new images..

i got same error ... as attached log file.

it seems during booting the kernel, not sure it is u-boot or kernel report it cannot find the root file system.

 

i am not sure it is the SD card issue or it it the Helios4 board issue or any other issue.

 

could anyone help?

Hello,

 

i'm still a fan of the helios4 myself.

Not a direct solution, but you could check the PSU as statet here:

If the PSU is defective, Voltage might drop below the needed Value to spin up the HDD (wild guess).

Hi

 

I own 2 Helios and had exactly the same problem on one...  Drives failing with many errors but the board still working (web, ssh)...

 

Just changed the PSU and everything restarted gracefully ;)
