6100 Failed eMMC replaced with NVme but now no longer reboots

[stbellcom]

Hello,

So far this year I have had two 6100 storage fail and have been trying to get the units running again with a NVMe drive.

The unit detects the drive, installs the OS fine but then when it comes to rebooting ether after a software update or from the WebGUI/CLI the unit just hangs.

The console output shows this when you reboot:

System is going to be upgraded.  Rebooting now.
Waiting (max 60 seconds) for system process `vnlru' to stop... done
Waiting (max 60 seconds) for system process `syncer' to stop...
Syncing disks, vnodes remaining... 0 0 0 0 0 done
All buffers synced.
Uptime: 1m23s
uhub0: detached

This is happening on both units using a variety of different drives.

If you power cycle the unit, it will boot normally and be fine, until the next reboot/update.

Anyone run into this and have a fix ?

Thanks

What drives did you try?

Did you test them in both m.2 slots?
