GrogBuild Zgemma not loading - Safe Mode?

[igazz]

Zgemma 5.2tc with Grogbuild
MicroSD for EPG, Timeshift
Ext. USB Hard Drive for Tecordings

Recently I had a blue screen that mentioned infobar fail the next blue screen mentioned device out of space (see attached). Now when I boot, it gets to 49% on the front display then goes back to standby.

1.
Is there a way to troubleshoot my problem, like 'safe-mode' or do I need to reflash?

2.
If not, how do I reflash Grogbuild without losing settings.
Thanks

Getting stuck on 49 indicates a skin problem.
See if you can change the skin

AHH blame the skin lol,can you use webif and log into box and change skin mode.

Maybe storage is not setup correctly?

Your box won’t boot if internal memory is full.
Connect to box using putty and run command: df

It will show available memory. FTP into your receiver and delete any unwanted items. Then reboot receiver and try again.

Thanks for the prompt replies.
As my box is going back into standby, I don't know how I can access it using webif/putty which was why I was wondering if there was a windows style 'safe-mode' to get the box up and running so I could get into it to troubleshoot but I guess there isn't???

Log in to your router to get the ip of your box.
When it boots and gets stuck at 49% you should still be able to get FTP/SSH access.

49% normally storage issue like mentioned above internal is low so a reflash n storage setup correctly will fix

there is no safe mode for these devices but you have a few options to correct it, the simplest would be to power the system off & remove all drives (usb/sd/hdd), then connect a fresh USB that has been formatted into NTFS & see IF the box will boot, if it does you could then connect/mount your previously connected drives & check the system over
