Please Help Freenas wont boot unrecoverable error

[syion]

I setup a freenas server many years ago for my wife's photo collection and it recently stopped working. I went to check on it and I found that it would not boot due to an unretryable error. I am assuming it may be the usd boot drive. At one time I had config file backup but I can not find it.

I took a quick video of the boot log in hopes that someone might be willing to point me to a solution. Boot Video Link


I left the IT field 10 years ago and sadly my skills are beyond rusty. My sincere appreciation to anyone who might be willing to lend me a hand.

Sincere appreciation

There is a copy of the boot config on the system dataset - which hopefully isn't on the bootpool. (Though I can't remember where - it is however mentioned somewhere on this board)
Alternatively replace the USB stick and rebuild and then import the old data pools. The data will be imported but you will likely have to set up access again which probably won't be a major issue

Assuming it's on the main data pool, which has been the default for a long time, it would be mounted at /var/db/system/configs-(longhexnumber).

I was worried about the "I setup a freenas server many years ago"
