Cerbo reboot stuck after openvpn installation

After installation of openvpn on cerbo reboot stucks. No Display no Network the device is inaccessable.

I followed the description on https://github.com/victronenergy/venus/wiki/howto-configure-OpenVPN and tested it manually. It was working.

But stupidly i forget to give user and password for the vpn, so the cerbo stucks after reboot. So i have no access anymore. Does anybody have an idea what to do in such a case.

Thanks for working solutions

I suggest using the Reset to factory defaults procedure and then starting over.

@Thomas Müller-Guttenbrunn yes you an recover it using an SD card.

Download the image from https://updates.victronenergy.com/feeds/venus/release/images/einstein/venus-install-sdcard-einstein-20221016213031-v2.92.img.zip

Write that image to the SD card, insert and reboot. It will do a complete fresh install. All data and configuration will be lost.
