Bodhi, sorry about wait, still fixing things after Hurricane Irma:) I went ahead and created the new boot usb , I was able to log back into debian: root@alienwar-M17xR4:/home/alienwar# picocom -b 115200 /dev/ttyUSB0 picocom v2.2 port is : /dev/ttyUSB0 flowcontrol : none baudrate is : 115200 parity is : none databits are : 8 stopbits are : 1 escape is :by echowarrior108 - uBoot
Bodhi, I have not been able to get to root@debian:~# to do this however I found that my sandisk drive has been malfunctioning, it actually quit working so that may be part of the problem, I created a new usb drive in my other Sandisk drive and have ran into a new issue: # picocom -b 115200 /dev/ttyUSB0 picocom v2.2 port is : /dev/ttyUSB0 flowcontrol : none baudrate is : 11by echowarrior108 - uBoot
Bodhi, I think this may be why, dpkg to install the new kernel, I am gonna keep working on it but if you know an easy fix I would really appreciate it:) # dpkg -i linux-image-4.4.123-oxnas-tld-1_1.0_armel.deb dpkg: error processing archive linux-image-4.4.123-oxnas-tld-1_1.0_armel.deb (--install): package architecture (armel) does not match system (amd64) Errors were encountered whileby echowarrior108 - uBoot

Bodhi, I believe when I was messing around figuring it all out I may have attempted typing it in by error, I had put all the files in the usb so it may have just booted either one. kinda just glad it boots up every time:) I am now wondering if it is something I should fix,lol...Echowarrior108 followup on last question, what happened was I was was looking up different versions and made a baby echowarrior108 - Debian
Bodhi, I checked out nextcloud, it seems ok but I have a bunch of windows based pc's that are not yet compatible, gonna keep searching until I find a good NAS program and software.

Bodhi, do you have a list of setenvs? I intend to set this up as a multi-usb cloud for home use and be able to access remotely. I'm running it through a Linksys wrt32x router so speed is no issue and I do have communication ( the router sees it), however I cannot access it from the browser yet, I know there has to be an easy fix but as usual I am still learning, I hope all this helps the nexby echowarrior108 - uBoot
