Can't reinstall on SG-3100
-
Hi,
I've made a mistake to upgrade to 2.5.0 DEV as things broke (Suricata/Squid*). I read that in order to downgrade I needed a fresh reinstall and restore a backup.
So while I was doing my reading to get ready for it (and mistakenly setting pfSense to 2.4.4 in the UI again), I had a power outage and the device didn't come back up.
I've imaged a USB device with the 2.4.4 ADI, plugged it in the USB port, connected to console and when trying to run "run recovery" in the "Marvell>" prompt, the USB starts and I then get the following:
"reading ubldr.bin
** Unable to read file ubldr.bin **
## Starting application at 0x002000000 ..."If I don't stop the booting process the device stays in a reboot loop as it panicks with the following (reason I decided to re-install now):
"panic: ffs_valloc: dup alloc
cpuid = 0
time= 1575162852
Upstime: 3s
Automatic reboot in 15 seconds - press any key on the console to abort"Any help is appreciated.
Cheers,

Aaaand, after some searching on the forum (not that I didn't look beforehand), I've found what I was looking for, after the fsck everything is good.
"
At the console press any key to interrupt the boot loader when you see: Hit [Enter] to boot immediately, or any other key for command prompt. At the prompt enter: boot -s That will boot in single user mode to a question asking for a path to the shell, just press return to reach the # prompt. At the # prompt run the following command: /sbin/fsck -y /
Run the fsck command at least 6 times; Repeat the command until no errors are reported, even if fsck claims the filesystem has been marked "clean".
Reboot by running: /sbin/rebootThe fastert way to get you back up and running is to re-install.

Thanks,
Vlad
