      Hi. I have upgraded from 2.2.2 to 2.2.3 from the WebGUI and it seems it succeded.

      It works… it all looks normal but I notice the hard drive led is constantly on.

      What is that it might be doing? How can I tell what is going on? Console? Logs?

          Yep, but couldn't understand which process was the one doing I/O. I'm not a *nix expert… but the forum and the many "good news" rang a bell

          mount -o nosync /

          SOLVED!

          PS: now removed the "sync" option out of /etc/fstab and rebooted, looks ok.
