Hi all, I have an identical problem. I am using the synoboot_microserver-2.img and have tried both the HDD Raw Copy Tool and Win32 Disk Imager on two different USB sticks. The N40L has not been upgraded beyond the hacked bios (tried with original bios as well). Does something need to be disabled in the bios? I have set the USB stick to be boot priority 1. Thanks for your help. What is the file format of the USB Stick? It failed for me 2 times when it was formated on EXT2 (think I had the same error) when I tried EXT3 it worked without a problem directly. I am running the default BIOS. Thanks for replying and your help. I tried again formatting first through Ubuntu. However, it still gets stuck at this step. I believe the Raw Copy does an image copy anyway so will overwrite the previously formatted USB stick. Also tried adding NightHawks zimage as in the original posts using Ex2 Volume Manager, however, still gets stuck. Makes me wonder if there is something simple I am missing. Has anyone who has come across this found out the reason why? I really want to get this running. Thanks for your help in advance.
