Hi Ermano,
The device does not boot up to the user prompt so I can't do any of the options you suggested.

Haryortheyji,
Based on your description it would appear that the OS was corrupted or deleted, but to start I would suggest you try running the EDA-diag from the menu, as it looks like from your earlier post you have grub working. If that doesn't help I would then recommend that you try reinstalling the OS.
Let me know if this helps and what you see.

Thanks. Am not sure if the OS was either deleted or corrupted. but I tried the EDA-diag.
dellemc-diag-os login:
At the prompt I tried Linuxadmin as username and passwd but that didn't work. Also, admin and admin did not work.

Hi @haryortheyji,
The username and password to the EDA-diag is root and calvin.
