Hi Everyone,
First of all, I'm pretty new in Linux. I've used it before, i know a few things but I'm far from an advanced user.
I just installed Arch Linux ARM on my NSA325 NAS. I've tried to clone the system's disk to the other one, but to reduce the size of the files I ran some scripts with pacman which removed every package from the system. (at least that's what I'm thinking). My intension was to remove only the packages installed by me and leave the stock ones.
At the moment the device can boot. It is answering when I'm pinging it from my laptop, but I cannot log in with SSH or Telnet. That's why I'm thinking that the pacman remove command cleared everything.
At this point I don't know what can I do. I tried to create the bootable usb drive again to start the installation process from scratch but it is not booting from the usd drive. The USB led blinks a few times and that's it. Seemingly nothing happens. I tried it with different HDD's but it's the same. Maybe something is changed in lower level of the OS?
The data on the HDD is not important.
Any help would be appriciated!
Thanks!
[edit] One interesting thing: at boot the device seems to reboot rigth after the start before any other led's lighting up except the power led.
