Roon OS going nuts today build 1.0.221

@Mike_Rubin

The dongle method worked pretty well, but I am happy to see the hardware working as intended and Roon supporting the current NUC versions officially. Thanks for that.

Have you been reading the other posts on the forum?

ROCK install/update error on NUC8i5

I installed ROCK on NUC8i5 with HP 250GB NVME SSD. It works well. But there was message about version update. [roon_1.6-1] Then I tried update but NUC goes to kernel panic. [20200813_020020] Then I tried to make new ROCK installation USB and to re-install ROCK but NUC show another error message. “ERROR: Roon Optimized Core Kit could not find disks to install” [20200813_014321] New ROCK installation image is " roonbox-linuxx64-nuc3-usb-factoryreset-100000221.img". Flashing was done by e…

Nucleus won’t start properly with last update

Been having trouble with the Nucleus for the past few weeks. Every 2 to 3 days it would just not show up as a Core to connect. Hard reset on the unit would fix the problem temporarily. Fast forward to today, when the remote app lets me know a new OS update is available. It downloads, I tell it to install, then…nothing. Can’t see the Core again. I figured I’d do a hard reset…nope. Can’t access the web interface either, and Fing can’t see it on the network though I know the port is working. Then I…

After the latest update my Roon Nucleus + is no where to be found

Looks like there a lot of us dealing with this. Several threads going in here…

Problem with ROCK after updating

■■■■■ same here. Updated without looking at the forum first. The blue please update dialog was too annoying so I hit Yes. Please provide steps to get it up again.

I guess not.

I had seen one of them, the first one above, when I posted, but it concerned a NUC 8, so I didn’t think it relevant to my unit.

I hope that management can help those with issues get things sorted out.

@xxx this has been sorted out – post mortem post coming soon.

[Jim_F (Minimalist)]

Will this be an automatic update to the Nucleus?

@danny

post mortem post coming soon.

Can’t wait.

Nothing against the OP. It’s just the timing that made me laugh.

Long day for you (I’ve been there, but mine where usually In the middle of the night), so I guess it isn’t funny.

[danny (Danny Dulai)]

Yes, but if you got into a bad state, it will require a usb key to recover. Only a handful of people in that boat.

[Jim_F (Minimalist)]

I won’t know until I get home Saturday, but I have no idea what a USB key is.

@Jim_F

I have no idea what a USB key is.

Thumb drive, probably bootable.

[Jim_F (Minimalist)]

But what is on the thumb drive and where will we get it? I just want to understand what to do if this happens Saturday.

@danny

I guessing, since you’ve been away and therefore not trying to use your Nucleus after the update, that you probably won’t have any troubles.

Roon OS woes, build 1.0.221 [resolved]

What happened We released a new version of Roon OS (for ROCK and Nucleus), and while the majority of installs were fine, a small number were left not-booting. With Roon OS 1.0.221, our primary goal was to implement support for NUC10 devices with ROCK, which included the requirement of updating the Linux kernel. In recent months we’ve seen an increase in requests for this support, and @danny stated last month that this build was in more advanced testing outside our company’s lab: This Roon OS…
