Hello there!
I think I've failed miserably and lost my data, so yeah, any help changing this current state of affairs would be much appreciated.
I turned off my FreeNAS box running Corral 10.0.3 today for cleaning, and when I turn it on again, boom! USB was giving the checksum error I've seen in a few places [1]. I've tried to start it again many times but it always fails to bootup so I cannot get to a point where I can do nothing with it.
- I don't have a backup of my configuration (stupid me). Although I don't care about losing how it was configured, I just want to mount my encrypted pool.
- I have one main encrypted pool, and I haven't exported the encryption key (I thought that was not necessary, and only a way of mounting the pools without password. I of course know the password)
However, the USB is still readable, so I guess I could access what is in there somehow. I've made a copy with dd to an image, but I am having problems mounting it in linux (yeah, any help here would also be appreciated)
So yeah, that's it. As I've said, any help will be much appreaciated
Also, so far I've tried:
- to boot up with any of the entries I had in my Grub2. It either does not boot up or fails during the process, complaining about not being able to found the root
- Set up a new installation, but when I try to import the volume, using `unix::>volume migration_import name=main passphrase="password"; wait` it gives me the following error: `Freenas no such table: storage_encrypteddisk`, so I am not sure if this is related of not having my configuration / db / geli key
Thanks
