I took the CF disk out and I conected it to diferent computer… MT worked there… then I tried to upgrade it one more time … in primary computer MT didn’t worked… I’ve downgrade it to version 2.9.42 and now MT works …
It vouldn’t be a problem If I could log in to the router
The router didn’t respond in any way…
Why do the normal versions work fin and the first beta thah I try dosen’t… ?
…hmm, could the answer to your question possibly have anything to do with the fact that the normal version (as you call it) is normal and the beta version is beta? If MT thought it was ready for release as production code, they wouldn’t have labelled it “beta!”
It might work for some (it did for me, in my limited testing…), but not for others. It depends on the hardware you’re running it on, the way you went about installing it, the configuration (if there was one) that it imported during the upgrade, and bugs still extant in the beta code.
I’m not trying to discourage anyone from running the beta code, testing the beta code, playing with the beta code, taking it around the block for a spin. But questions like “why does the stable version work and the beta version doesn’t” seem a little obvious and pointless/non-productive.
If the same 3.0beta7 install works on one machine but not on another, you might put the disk back in the machine it works on, generate a supout, and send it to support along with a description of the hardware that you tried running it on along with the symptoms. Maybe they can figure out what’s wrong.
I had a similar thing when upgrading an x86 server from 2.9.x to 3.0rc5. When I connected a monitor it said:
Loading system with initrd
Uncompressing Linux… Ok, booting the kernel.
ERROR: Could not find disk!
Please attache it somewhere else.
The CF card was secondary master so I tried it in the primary master but same error. I have the exact same hardware running 3.0rc2 but think that may have been a cleen install of v3 (i.e not an upgrade from v2). The box does have dual processors so could that be the issue as v2 will only use 1 CPU but v3 makes use of both?
I also have the same problem. We initially installed RouterOS v2.9.x on the machine. It worked fine untill it started crashing at irregular intervals. I contacted MT and they told me to send them a support out. I never did this because shortly afterwards 2 other servers of the same brand crashed
I then contacted the supplier and took the servers back. After some “research” they found that the motherboards and the CPU’s where incompatible
To cut a short story long, they replaced the CPU’s and now, with everything the same(hardware wise) except the CPU, I am also getting this message when I plug in the monitor:
Loading system with initrd
Uncompressing Linux… Ok, booting the kernel.
ERROR: Could not find disk!
Please attach it somewhere else.
We bought a level 4 license for the server and I feel that its the same box and I don’t have to get a new license.
We are using a Intel Pentium 4 3.20Ghz processor(single core with HT), with 1 Gb Ram. 80Gb (no raid) sata drive. The motherboard is a Tyan server motherboard. As per my previous post, the only difference between the original and the current box is the CPU.
please make the support output file from the version where it boots, so we could check what could cause that problems and send it to support@mikrotik.com
