tariq_niazi Posted September 12, 2016 Share #1 Posted September 12, 2016 I was following the normal procedure of upgrading the USB stick to 5.2-5967 Bootloader. In Synology Assistant, the Status read "Migratable". I followed the wizard BUT when I got to the DSM selection screen, I accidentally picked the option where it downloads the update from the web. It seems like it downloaded DSM version 6 and my bootloader is 5.2-5967. Now in Synology Assistant, I am getting a Status "Recoverable". I have tried to recover many times and my machine only reboots and does not else. Can someone advice or direct me with a solution on how I can go back to a working Xpenology Box. Thanks for your help in advance. - T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tariq_niazi Posted September 12, 2016 Author Share #2 Posted September 12, 2016 I can also get to the Recovery Wizard from the web page. When I click on recover, it restarts and does nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tariq_niazi Posted September 16, 2016 Author Share #4 Posted September 16, 2016 Alright, I fixed the problem. I installed 5.1-5022 bootloader into the USB stick and booted from that. It then showed "Migratable" again. Then I used the associated PAT file to install the OS. Then I took the latest bootloader of 5.2. Finally, I installed the latest PAT file. Unfortunately, I had to do a clean install so I lost all my applications but some settings remained. Luckily, my data stayed intact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
