E 06 (E06 lost boot image) A-Z Steps in one place

[aparadissis]

Hi All, 
     I have two TeraStation units that I received with no drives.  I have replace all the drives with the same speed/size.  The unit I am focusing on is a TS-H4.0TGL/R5; this unit takes 4.  I have read the other posts, both inside this forum and out.  There is rarely a glimpse of help to get me unstuck.  Here is a setup for everyone to use as I hope this thread will be the last time anyone needs to dig for weeks to get this fixed.

I have a XP laptop directly ethernetted to the NAS with a patch cord.  My lappy ip is the gateway for the nas; for non I.T. people it's 192.168.11.1, subnet is 255.255.0.0, and gateway is 192.168.11.1.  My nas is 192.168.11.150.  I have TFTP Boot.exe running with a boot image (uImage.buffalo and initrd.buffalo) showing as served.  I also have NASNavi and TSUpdater running.  There is no AV and no firewall since this laptop is not on the internet.  I read that you must have all drives present or the firmware update will fail with a password incorrect error.  Which is my current stopping point.

I have all drives in with no errors.  Display shows Emergency Management mode; so I passed the first hurdle of getting out of E06.  When I click find on TSUpdater it finds the NAS.  When I click on the Update button, I get a "Couldn't pass to the authentication" error after about 10 seconds.  I have rebooted everything and I can not find any way to get the firmware onto the disks.

Any help is appreciated.  I will try and find a way to upload some pic's or a vid.

Tx,

Alex

Here is a pic of the Updater that gives me the password error when I click update


And lastly, the password error

The links I have found are older than 2015 for the E06 error.  They also never post a successful solution. 

Here is what I found; all in one place for future ease of reference.

Right now the only lead I have is that I must switch out my unit to drives that are 500Gb or less. 

Can anyone confirm this is a required step?

You have done everything write apart from the last step of installing the firmware, to get around the error you are receiving just install the 1.33 firmware first, then 1.35

Davo,    Thanks for the quick and accurate reply.

Status update.  I pulled down the 1.33 firmware from this link:

I rebooted everything and got the following:



Then I get:



Then....

But then when all is done, I curiously get at Japanese webpage when I try to web to the NAS.  So, I think somehow I got a Euro version of the firmware.  I also get a RAID Array 1 E14 error.  So far it looks like I have to log into the browser and redo the RAID.

Side note, a co-worker showed me how to change the language from Jp to English in the GUI.  It's a known issue.

I also rebuilt the RAID 1, so now it has to sync and I'll post more about the E14 error.
