Ok, I’m not having much luck with my Vero 2. It is now in a state where it does not output to HDMI nor appear to boot.
The sequence of events was:
29/02 - unable to update but otherwise was working fine
01/03 - working fine but did not update (lack of time to do so)
04/03 - the UI had crashed but could access via SSH. So, I issued:
sudo reboot
This hung after 15 minutes
Pulled and inserted power cable to reboot
This caused an init error on the internal storage.
Hard reset again and even its auto fsck shrugged and gave in with init error on the boot volume.
I then wrote the 2016.02-2 release to an SD card and it installed. After installation it sat there saying “installed” but gave no options to reboot. So, no choice: pull the power, remove SD and insert power cable.
It then booted to the setup screen. I entered details and it no matter how many times I clicked Continue on the accept warranty page it just kept scrolling the warranty…
…until the warranty page hung. Forcing, yup, another pull-cable-insert-cable reboot.
And it hung at the warranty page again. Ok, one last time: pull-cable-insert-cable reboot.
And at this point nothing is outputting on HDMI**, nor can I access it over SSH. Nor if I put in the reinstall SD card does anything appear on-screen.
** I then moved the HDMI cable to go to my TV direct bypassing my amp (in case the amp was being funny), but no dice.
Any thoughts? Or is it a dead duck?
Ta.
