SG-5100 hangs durring reboot.
-
I have not, in fact I had never been in the bios until I was trying to troubleshoot this. I don’t think I changed anything but I can set it back to defaults and ensure WoL is disabled.
-
Seems unrelated in fact. My test 5100 also shows that in verbose mode but reboots as expected.
Hard to imagine it could be anything but a BIOS setting or actual hardware at that point.
-
When I have time for a longer downtime I’ll get the latest factory image, reset the bios and reflash the os. Maybe even get a new boot disk. I vaguely remember this one being a cheaper one I got for a project that fell through and got tossed in a drawer.
-
It's a possibility but it's hard to see what might have changed in 23.01 that could cause it.
The 5100 can be installed UEFI or legacy (BIOS). Try running:
sysctl machdep.bootmethodto find out. My test box is currently BIOS.Steve
-
Mine is currently in BIOS mode as well. However I’m not sure it’s related to 23.01.
-
Ah, you think it may have also been hanging there in 22.05?
-
It was. I’m trying to remember when the last time I actually had to reboot was. I feel the rolling blackouts in December were fine but those also caused full power loss. But I vaguely remember having to pull the power for a reboot before then.
It started after replacing the drive but not immediately.
But it was most noticeable when I tried to install the 23.01 rc. Since it hung rebooting while still in 22.05.
After performing a nfs snapshot restore to 22.05 I had the same issue rebooting.
-
Ah, OK. That does start to seem like it might be the drive then.
I have experienced pretty much the same thing with a rogue drive in an MBT-4220. Not seen it in a 5100 but it could be possible.
-
Do you have any drives you would suggest or recommend?
-
I have the drive we fitted to various devices which unhelpfully shown as 'NT-32'.
There are a few threads here with other users reporting the drives they used in 5100s. I don't really have anything I can recommend personally.
