  1. I had the same issue "No boot disk detected" for me the problem was that i had a disk attached with a NTFS partition on it. When i removed the NTFS partitions from that disk it started to work

     

    Thanks for your reply.

     

    There is only one fat32 partition created by unetbootin containing:

    - menu.c32

    - syslinux.cfg

    - ubinit

    - ubnkernel

     

    I didn't meant on the USB drive, but on my additional HDD

  2. I ran it on a vmware environment, i it looks like it is working.

    Both disk are IDE

    I don't know what to test, i created a volume, installed a package and rebooted the system.

    Volume is still there

     

    Maybe somebody can check what they did with this build, and use it for a build by trantor

     

    Try the microupdate.

     

    Update is not working, i tried it with the next code as well

    sed 's/flashupdateDeb/flashupdateDeb1/' /autoupd@te.info > /autoupd@te.info1
    mv /autoupd@te.info1 /autoupd@te.info

  4. Is there any setup that allows for HDDs to spin down?

     

    ESXi with DSM

    Native DSM on Microserver

    DSM on SSD

    .....

     

    Think of this as a workaround to software not allowing them to spin down.

     

    spindown for a second volume on a RAID controller was not working.

    spindown for a third volume on a onboard RAID controller was not working.

     

    Everything is installed on the first volume, second and third volume is only for data like movies

     

    Regards

  5. Could you make a test zImage with this for me to test?

     

    I built with official sata_mv.c from kernel.org but system start and shutdown after 30sec.

    I see error about gpio when booting so I add syno_sata_mv_gpio_write function in sata_mv.c and like your voodoo magic... it's boot :mrgreen:

    Everything seem to work fine.

     

    Patched kernel for marvell

     

    diff file between original sata_mv.c and syno's one

     

    Feedbacks please :wink:

     

    Is this this the possible fix for your issue with DSM 4.3?

  6. LSI controller is still not being supported, I wonder?

    I have IBM1015 flashed with LSI 9211-8i IT and none of the releases, including 4.3 would not pick up the drives.

    4.3 at least will tell that there no drives connected, 4.2 v1.1 will attempt to install but after restart it'll "loose config".

     

    Update:

    Successfully installed 4.2 on the hdd connected to one of the local SATA ports, now 2 out of 3 HDDs connected to LSI controller are recognized.

    For the third, have to unplug and plug SATA cable back in, but it detects HDD as eSATA.

    LSI bios detects all 3 HDDs on every boot.

     

    Strange i have a m1015 as a lsi 9240 in it mode and i see all the disks, for me its working perfectly, i installed dsm on a onboard sata disk, and used all the m1015 disks as a second volume.

    Maybe you need to check synoinfo and make some adjustments for the internalportcfg, couple of pages back there is a discussion about it.

  7. Thanks Trantor,

    I can see the 3 disks of a SHR in the ubuntu disk manager and I can see all partitions but I cannot recreate the RAID to have access to all the files and copy them over.

    Do you have any suggestions ?

     

    I'm not an expert but try playing with mdam and/or lvm2 force option that "can" mount degraded volume.

     

    I just saw that DSM 4.3 is released, are you updating to 4.3? :grin:

     

    Does the latest megaraid_sas driver fix your issue ?

     

    I just updated the 2 files, but still the same issue

    Here a screenshot, does not look like a driver problem

    raiderror.PNG

  8. I guess my card is handled by the megaraid_sas, because my card is seen as a LSI 9240.

     

    I remove the built-in driver and compil the latest one frome LSI website.

    Try this : http://xpenology.trantor.be/megaraid_sa ... _zImage.7z

    Just replace zImage and rd files on your USB stick.

     

    Did you manage to install DSM on your LSI card or you have standard SATA drive with DSM on it ? (see Psyclops-1's question)

     

    I installed DSM on a onboard SATA disk.

    I will try the new drivers today, let you know how it works

  9. I still have 1 issue with my RAID controller, every time when i reboot the system i said that my RAID 5 config is broken, i need to hit repair and in 5 seconds its back online.

     

    I'm looking on IBM website but the link for latest IBM ServeRAID M Series and MR10 driver is dead :sad:

    I think using driver from IBM instead of adaptec may solve this issue.

     

    EDIT: After downloading the sources, it seems that the driver inside the archive is LSI megaraid_sas... I will look to update this ^^

    EDIT2: Does the aacraid module is even loaded on your system ? (I suspect your card is handle by megaraid_sas as I discovered in IBM package)

     

    I guess my card is handled by the megaraid_sas, because my card is seen as a LSI 9240.

  10. Today i successfully updated my system to V1.1, everything migrated well.

    I still have 1 issue with my RAID controller, every time when i reboot the system i said that my RAID 5 config is broken, i need to hit repair and in 5 seconds its back online.

     

    eSATA is now USB, thanks for that

     

    You migrate from 3202 build and you didn't loose any data ?

    I test this on 3 computers and I loose everything on each.

     

    During the installation i could those 3 options, 1 of them was migrate, for safely i removed my raid controller, but the other disks successfully migrated, after the migration i installed the raid card again and everything was working. couple of things i had to change myself.

  11. FrankGNL : are you using VMware ESX5? or just a whitebox server?

     

    I'm using a whitebox server

     

    I just found a weird problem, i attached 8 drives to my controller, but synology only see 6 drives, is this a common problem?

     

    Frank,

     

    I had the similar problem before. See my fix below.

    viewtopic.php?f=2&t=937&start=60#p5034

     

    Essentially, you need to modify /etc.defaults/synoinfo and play around with "internalportcfg" parameter.

    internalportcfg is a hexadecimal bitmask.

     

    0xf = 0b1111 ( 4 drives )

    0xff = 0b11111111 ( 8 drives)

    0xfff = 0b111111111111 ( 12 drives )

     

    What I would do is increase the internalportcfg to something big like 0xffff (16 drives) and modify usbportcfg and esataportcfg so they aren't colliding with it. If this works, then you can tweak it to your exact configuration.

     

    Hope this helps.

     

    Wonderfull this is working!!

     

    Now i'm going to test with spin down
