Default Re: DisasterRecovery - In Progress ( For 3 Days? )

from the debug console, then enter "touch /nopoviot" the server should reboot and the recovery console will launch. Then you can do your OS install. From this point you alnoy have the OS shell loaded and no services or programs.

in the past the debug window some time would not give you any indications that the cmd was executed. But it was in most cases it would give an error if it failed.

If it does not launch/reboot. you may needt to be loged in as admin and root access. To get to that, type osshell, then su root, then enter root password. then try the touch cmd.
