paranco Posted February 9, 2017 Share #351 Posted February 9, 2017 Thank Polanskiman, and all other users With your help I was able to update my Asrock motherboard C2250D4i to DSM 6.2 update 8 Thanks again... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jack78 Posted February 9, 2017 Share #352 Posted February 9, 2017 Hello everybody,thank a lot for the tutorial. It worked! One question though, DSM Info shows as a Prozessor "INTEL Core i3-4130 with 2 Prozessors à 3.4 GHz". But I have installed an i5-7500 with 4 Processors à 3.4 GHz. Is this only a mistake in the info-screen or do I need to do something to adjust this? Thanks, Jaithn This is normal. Speed is real, but procesor model is wrong, on every Xpenology.

H_U_L_K Posted February 9, 2017 Share #353 Posted February 9, 2017 After migration from 5.2 to DSM 6.0.2-8451 update 8, quantity of RAM shows 8 gb, but instaled only 4. I think it's similar to the situation with the processor, and the performance is not affected. I have intel atom 2*1,6 ghz cores. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dotslash Posted February 10, 2017 Share #354 Posted February 10, 2017 Hello world. I have a DSM 5.2-5644 upd 5 on HP Micro Server Gen8 with 1610 Celeron upgraded to DSM 6.0.2 8451 upd5 by jun's loader. Question: Can upgrade to DSM 6.0.2 8451 upd9 by control panel? thanks ooooookkkkay Polanskiman wrote:To everyone: I recommend not to update to update 9. Some people are experiencing issues. A hard reboot may fix the problem in some instances but this does not seem to fix the issue for everyone, so stay on update 8 until further notice. Tutorial has been updated accordingly.

jack78 Posted February 10, 2017 Share #355 Posted February 10, 2017 You can, but i don't recomend. Use update8 in manual update from 1 post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spyrule Posted February 12, 2017 Share #356 Posted February 12, 2017 Does anybody know of the drivers for the Mellanox ConnectX2 cards are included in this build ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mervincm Posted February 13, 2017 Share #357 Posted February 13, 2017 I suspect there may be driver issues with the three types of 10G cards I own. OEM of Intel SFP+ -shows up but will neither accept a static IP nor a DHCP address, instead defaulting to a 169.x.x.x -Firmware up to date -Intel 82599 chipset (not listed specifically but it is seen and part of intel bundle so I "hoped" it would work) -work OK in XPenology 5.2 IBM OEM 42C1792 -Broadcomm NetXtreme 2 (bnx2x) (listed and should work) -firmware bnx2x-e1-7.0.29.0, maybe firmware is not in correct locations (in 5.x it was copy bnx2x-e1-7.0.29.0.fw into /lib/firmware/bnx2x) -shows up accept a static IP, good Write performance (400-800 MB/sec) terrible Read Performance (1-2 MB/Sec) -Broadcomm BCM57710 -work OK in XPenology 5.2 Mellanox ConnectX-2 1 Port SFP+ -firmware=unknown -not listed, not expected to work. -not seen on boot, stops boot progression in fact. -works OK in Windows test Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orzyl Posted February 13, 2017 Share #358 Posted February 13, 2017 To which version can I upgrade my HP N40L (now i have 5.1, but can upgrade to 5.2 5644.5), to have phpvirtualbox working ? Is it safe to upgrade? I need phpvirtualbox and working ACL on encrypted folders. Please - if anybody knows, don't leave this post not replied.

fonix232 Posted February 13, 2017 Share #359 Posted February 13, 2017 Are there any news about update 9? It isn't really specified what issues it is causing, and I can't see much about related topics either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billat29 Posted February 13, 2017 Share #360 Posted February 13, 2017 Are there any news about update 9? It isn't really specified what issues it is causing, and I can't see much about related topics either. It's been running on my N54L (disclaimer: There's a HP NC360T card in it) for at least 10 days. So far without me noticing any problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polanskiman Posted February 14, 2017 Author Share #361 Posted February 14, 2017 (edited) Are there any news about update 9? It isn't really specified what issues it is causing, and I can't see much about related topics either. Some people were unable access their box after applying update s9, that is why I issued a warning. So far what I have seen is that the issue happened to people who where using Jun's loader v1.0 and not v1.01. It seems that most of the time the issue was resolved by either updating to the newer version of the loader or simply burning the image loader again on the usb drive.

lunzet Posted February 14, 2017 Share #362 Posted February 14, 2017 Hi all so my first post and already a question to this great project as I have tried upgrading from DSM 5.2 to 6.0 checking this doc here. Unfortunately when trying to reboot from the fresh flashed usb stick with junes loader 1.01 i only do see a blinking cursor although with dsm 5.2 everything is working as expected(so all hardware is working). So I am wondering how to check wghich driver might be missing or is having an issue or if I should just get different hardware or just wait for an updated version? my current hardware is a HP dc7700 SFF (https://www.cnet.com/products/hp-compaq ... ess/specs/) anything wrong with this for DSM 6 ? Thanks so much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks so much Make sure your bios is configured to boot in UEFI mode. If your MB doesn't support UEFI then make sure you boot from legacy by selecting the proper boot drive during boot or by configuring your bios beforehand so that it boots the loader in legacy mode.

lunzet Posted February 15, 2017 Share #364 Posted February 15, 2017 board is already set for legacy boot. dsm 5.2 boots without issues. dsm 6 is only showing blinking cursor... no other message at all. same thing when selecting the usb stick manually on boot menu. no idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turexy Posted February 15, 2017 Share #365 Posted February 15, 2017 Hi guys, I would like to make few changes to the boot image and specifically to the content of ramdisk.lzma which is in \image\DS3615xs\ folder. The problem is that I cannot unsquash the file it's giving me: Can't find a SQUASHFS superblock on ramdisk.lzma I have compiled squashfs4.3 with LZMA_XZ_SUPPORT ebnabled, but no joy. @Polanskiman, do you have any recommendation to linux flavour, packages needed or any tips how to properly unsquashfs the ramdisk.lzma edit it and then mksquashfs it back?

Not sure if this is what you are after but here you go: Unpack script: #!/bin/bash rm -r ramdisk mkdir ramdisk cd ramdisk unlzma -c ../ramdisk.lzma | cpio -im cd .. repack script: #!/bin/bash cd ramdisk find . | cpio -o -H newc | lzma > ../ramdisk_new.lzma cd .. Just so that you know the image is already a hybrid image efi/bios. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turexy Posted February 15, 2017 Share #367 Posted February 15, 2017 Great, thanks for the info, much appreciated! Before I start doing any work on the image I would like to explain what I would like to achieve. My current server is running 5.2 on xenon CPU with 16 GB of ram, 6Gb LSI HBA, this is so I can run few virtual machines using the VpirtualBox with php GUI package from http://spk.diablos-netzwerk.de/#showhistory_virtualbox. It works perfectly on 5.2 and I wanted to create a test bed so I can see how it works on 6.x before I move the whole system. Unfortunately the latest supported version by the VirtualBox is DSM 6.0 7321. My aim was to edit VERSION file inside /etc/ folder so it lets me install the DSM_DS3615xs_7321.pat . Is the loader going to work with 6.0 7321 at all or I should not waste my time and wait for release of the DSM source for the current versions? I have already tested all the features from the 6.0.2 updat8 using your loader, the one I'm particularly interested in is btrfs, I was able to make snapshots send them over ssh to remote locations, run stuff directly off the remote snapshots it's just awesome. Been log wait to see zfs-like file-system on the Synology Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turexy Posted February 15, 2017 Share #368 Posted February 15, 2017 That's odd, I've tried Ubuntu 16 and CentOS 7 with lzma tools installed. I used kpartx on the synoboot.img so I can map the partitions, and then mounted the first partition to be able to copy the ramdisk.lzma: unzip DS3615xs\ 6.0.2\ Jun\'s\ Mod\ V1.01.zip kpartx -av synoboot.img add map loop0p1 (253:0): 0 61440 linear /dev/loop0 2048 add map loop0p2 (253:1): 0 30720 linear /dev/loop0 63488 add map loop0p3 (253:2): 0 8159 linear /dev/loop0 94208 mount /dev/mapper/loop0p1 /mnt/ mkdir dev cd dev/ cp -a /mnt/image/DS3615xs/ramdisk.lzma ls -lh -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 5.9M Nov 2 09:34 ramdisk.lzma mkdir ramdisk cd ramdisk # unlzma -c ../ramdisk.lzma | cpio -im 45997 blocks unlzma: ../ramdisk.lzma: Compressed data is corrupt I get same error no matter what I do. Any idea? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turexy Posted February 15, 2017 Share #369 Posted February 15, 2017 Scrap that, I'm being a nob, I didn't see the output from the cpio as there was no v parameter. The ramdisk file has actually uncompressed just fine. I will test it with the DSM_DS3615xs_7321.pat this evening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turexy Posted February 15, 2017 Share #370 Posted February 15, 2017 Well it didn't work. I mean I get the boot screen up to the moment where it says Booting kernel. but without any output it's hard to say what is going on. It basically doesn't get a DHCP lease that I know for sure as I'm doing tcpdump on my DHCP server. My new VERSION file looks like: majorversion="6" minorversion="0" productversion="6.0" buildphase="hotfix" buildnumber="7321" smallfixnumber="0" builddate="2016/04/18" buildtime="05:10:40" unique="synology_bromolow_3615xs" extractsize=680844 I think it's a correct format. I manged once to downgrade my 5.x DSM and I rmember I had to edit this file to be able to install earlier version of *pat file. If any one is more familiar with this and you think it would take you few minutes to generate working synoboot.img or at least ramdisk.lzma for DSM_DS3615xs_7321.pat I would much appreciate it.

I don't think it will work as the loader or more precisely speaking the patch/hack that Jun developed targets DSM 6.0.2 Beta 7274 source code. The code was updated on 7321 so the patch is more likely not to work on that version. Basically you would need to look into the source code of 7321, but then again it's not available. Better wait DSM 6.1 source code which Synology has said would release "soon". We all know what that means though. You could ask Jun directly for more details but don't get your hopes high as he hasn't been active in the forum for quite some time now.

Yeah I will wait for the new source release so the VitualBox can be updated, no point going backwards, also don't want to waste Jun's time. Thanks for your help anyway, much appreciated!

Turbine-7 Posted February 16, 2017 Share #373 Posted February 16, 2017 Running on a N54L and I'm going to update to 6.0 but I'm still on 5.0. Which version of 5.2 do I need to upgrade to first - any of them? It's been a while since my last upgrade (4.3 - 5.0), so I can't remember if it loses config/settings for packages (specifically Couch Potato, SABnzdb, Sickbeard and Plex), will any get lost between 5.0 - 5.2 - 6.0 ?

kknology Posted February 17, 2017 Share #374 Posted February 17, 2017 how can I reset password in this DSM6.0 if it's hacked or I forgot the password? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polanskiman Posted February 17, 2017 Author Share #375 Posted February 17, 2017 how can I reset password in this DSM6.0 if it's hacked or I forgot the password? Maybe re-install DSM 6 using Synology Assistant (do no use http://find.synology.com). At some point you will be given the option to give a new admin password. That's how I would do it although I have never done it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
