Hello list, yesterday morning I woke up, and realized my slug wasn't routing anymore. It wasn't resolving my internal DNS or giving DHCP addresses. I looked at it and noticed that the USB led was off: only the first 2 leds (from the top) were on. I tried to turn it off pressing the power button, but that had no effect, so I unplugged the power wire and connected the USB HD to a laptop. I performed fsck on the partition, and only the /home partition needed some inodes to be fixed (must be because of the hard shutdown). Then I checked dmesg and syslog, and couldn't find anything weird.
I put the hard disk back to the slug and booted it, but it won't boot up: all I get is the initial flashing leds sequence and then only the first 2 leds are on. Also, the ethernet usb dongle is not powered. So it seems that the the boot process stops before the usb subsystem is brought up. Can you give me any hints about how to find out what the problem is? Thank you very much in advance!
