Default Re: Snap 4100 FSCK fatal error = 27

Brain storming...did not know if you knew this, but you don't have to setup a password when you reset it. You can leave it blank and enter "root" as user name and hit enter.
Little things like this could make a difference when things go wrong. It's another think to cross off your list and doesn't hurt anything. You are going to have to start thinking out of the box. Do you have a com1 port on the motherboard?
If you can update the SnapOS to the newest then I would do it. Once again, another thing to cross off the list that will not harm anything. Use the reset button to reset it. Some flags in the bios might not have been reset when the cmos battery was removed. Double check and redo everything to make sure.

I would love to be able to try things in debug, but for some reason, even when I reset the unit and give it a new password, it won't let me sign on.

As an experiment, I hooked up Disk 1 and disconnected the other drives just to see if it would let me access the admin pages, but that didn't work. Even with just one drive, it goes immediately into panic mode. So now I'm suspecting hardware, because with one drive it should at least come up with a broken raid.

I'm not too keen on trying an update of the OS when I can't even sign onto the snap so I can go to the debug pages. But, if all else fails, I'll give that a shot too.
