    Automated RedPill Loader (ARPL)

    in Loaders

    Posted

    Dear all, thanks for the wonderful job with ARP loader.

    I just completed my new NAS with updated disks and motherboard: I am using ARPL-1.0-beta6 on a ASROCK j3710-itx, with DSM 7.1.1-42962 update 2 flawlessly.

    I only spotted a little problem. Rear usb ports do not work at all. I wanted to connect an external USB disk to make a backup of very important data (using hyperbackup) but the disk is not detected. If I connect the same disk to my PC it works without any problem.

    Any hint on how to fix this issue?

    DSM detects the USB HUB as a ASM1074 high speed hub.

    DSM 6.2 Loader

    HP MicroServer Gen8 with E3-1256L V2 boots fine with new loader and upgraded OK from 6.1 to 6.2, but getting some odd behaviour when I log into DSM.  If I don't mess with DSM, it runs fine, including the VM I have configured under VMM.  The second I log into DSM, it shuts down every service and I lose connection about 30 seconds later.  It's not a hard crash, as I can watch the logs and see it's shutting down/pausing every service that's running.  Pretty odd, I'm guessing something didn't upgrade nicely from 6.1 -> 6.2, I doubt it's loader related.

    Continues like that until I lose the connection.  If I check messages after the next boot, it's shutdown everything like it's planning to reboot or something, but never actually finishes.

     

     

    I have the same problem, how did you solve it?

    Thanks Shnapps, I finally made my decision, I will go with xpenology.

    Accidentally we have almost the same configuration, since I am building my nas on a ASRock q1900-itx; I only have 4 GB of ram that I think are quite enough for my needs.

    Just out of curiosity, why are you using hyper-v? I may take your advices and use it too, if I need it, right now I can't see why :smile:

     

    In the end, another question: what do we lose by using xpenology on a diy nas in place of buying a real synolgy rig? Are there some add-ons that can't work on it or is it exactly all the same? I may borrow a mac address and a sn from a real synology nas if it's the case, but I have not a clear idea what's that for.

    Hi,

    I am a new user of xpenolgy and I am slowly learning. I am an experienced linux sysadmin, and I am going to build during christmas my first nas.

    I chose a DIY solution to save money and to be able to expand my config as much as I like.

    I am now studying the different NAS distributions and after testing OpenMediaVault and Freenas, I came to XPEnology.

    This solution really attracts me a lot, because it's a commercial product and should be more solid and versatile, compared to open source ones.

    What scares me is the future. While with freenas (a little bit overkill for my home NAS expectations) and Openmediavault I think there will be no problems in getting support and updates for the years to come, I feel a little more uncertain on xpenology, because in a future, synology may be able to add locks and break the wonderful work people in this community is doing.

     

    So the final question is: do you think that I can install xpenology on my rig and live safe for the next 5 years, counting on updates and support?
