Post install, booting can't mount anything under /root

[JHarding86]

I have a BlackArmor 440 so I know things aren't exactly stable. I am here to help try and get this thing going nicely for everyone.

Installation seemed to go over without a hitch. Post install as the NAS is booting failures occur attempting to mount anything under the /root directory.

Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.

(initramfs) ls
bin      dev      init     proc     run      scripts  tmp      var
conf     etc      lib      root     sbin     sys      usr
(initramfs) 

If I navigate into /root there is folder "@rootfs" which contains everything I would imagine should be there including the missing fsck binary.

Any idea why the root file system isn't being mounted properly?

I just reran the installation and installed on a USB stick and debian booted right up. I was trying to install to a RAID0 array, that obviously doesn't work here. Thanks for turning my useless BlackArmor into a brand new functional NAS! I'd really love to get the extra 2 bays functional.

Interesting note, the debian installer recognized a disk that I had installed in bay 2. Upon having a successful installation and booting into it, the drive did not show in /dev :(

It is possible to install and boot Debian on a RAID0 but from your logs I can not conclude whats going wrong.

Anyway, enjoy using the NAS :)
