White screen just after boot up

Help

You need only the packages from the system directory, nothing else.
All other system files are either part of a package and just mounted, or part of the system installation that you want to do again.
Note that if the system then still fails to boot, then one of your packages might be the cause and you can try with a fresh install, installing one package after another and see when the system ffails to boot again.

Thanks it looks as though the SSD itself is good to go. I think what it was was that I had done a number of hard resets while Haiku was in the process of booting but had stalled at the hard drive with maple leaf icon on the boot up progress screen. Still not sure what that was all about…
