Hello Archers!
Situation;
Arch Linux Seagate Goflex Home (SG-GFH) was fully operational but now not getting IP address after plugging in USB Western Digital My Book Essentials (USB-WD-MBE) and restarting.
Environment;
1 NetGear WND3700 v2 router.
1 Laptop computer (LT-A) running Ubuntu Linux 12.04 .
1 Seagate GoFlex Home (SG-GFH) with Arch Linux) connected directly to router.
1 USB Western Digital My Book Esstentials (USB-WD-MBE)
Events;
Recently installed Arch Linux on SG-GFH.
Setup 3 partitions - 1st partition for system, 2nd for swap and 3rd for data.
Create mount point for 3rd partition.
Setup NFS.
Installed some additional packages, Webmin, etc.
Everything seemed to be working fine.
Connected USB-WD-MBE to LT-A.
Used Filezilla to successfully copy 150 GBs of data from LT-A/USB-WD-MBE to the SG-GFH. Transfer rate was very slow.
To see if I could get better transfer speed I plugged in the USB-WD-MBE into the USB port on the SG-GFH.
I verified that the SG-GFH was seeing the USB-WD-MBE (/dev/sdc). I did not setup any mount points or modify fstab, etc.
I restarted the SG-GFH with the USB-WD-MBE plugged in and now not getting IP address.
So, I shutdown everything and powered up again, still no ip.
Then, I disconnected the USB-WD-MBE and powered up, still no ip.
I shutdown everything again and pulled the disk from the SG-GFH.
Upon restart, I could see that the router assigned 192.168.1.2 to the device named "ALARM".
I can ping successfully 192.168.1.2 *** BUT *** I cannot ssh into it "Connection refused".
$ ssh -v root@192.168.1.2
OpenSSH_5.9p1 Debian-5ubuntu1.1, OpenSSL 1.0.1 14 Mar 2012

debug1: connect to address 192.168.1.2 port 22: Connection refused
ssh: connect to host 192.168.1.2 port 22: Connection refused
Ran port scan (Network Tools) nothing returned.
So what can I do. Is it possible to get it back?
I am not sure if the USB-WD-MBE had anything to do with this.
I cannot ssh in and not even sure if I can do a complete re-install.
Any assistance much appreciated!
