Can you please point to this method?

Still not sure what's happening in my J-4105. I´ll try again playing with extra.lzma. As I said, hw transcoding doesn't work here with your clean extra.lzma on 6.2.2. No /dev/dri. But it was working with a custom extra.lzma on 6.2.1. Actually I´m not sure who posted this extra.lzma. Maybe you, TeleDimm or Olegin. Unfortunately, I got no net when updating to 6.2.2 with this extra.lzma.

J4105B-ITX here. Hardware transcoding is working on 6.2.1 update 6 and custom extra.lzma. I tried and updated two times on a test disk 6.2.2 changing extra.lzma, deleting extra2.lzma on 1.04 loader and deleting /usr/lib/modules/update/* . It worked flawlessly but none of the two times I tried hardware transcoding was working.

What is my best to use this USB3 ethernet dongle? Should I disable MOBO NIC? Or should I left internal NIC enabled and add another NIC on grub.cfg?

Did you left extra2.lzma? Is hw transcoding working for you?

J4105B here. Hardware transcoding is working on 6.2.1 update 6 and custom extra.lzma. I tried and updated two times on a test disk 6.2.2 changing extra.lzma, deleting extra2.lzma on 1.04 loader and deleting /usr/lib/modules/update/* . It worked flawlessly but none of the two times I tried hardware transcoding was working. Is not possible hardware transcoding with real3x's extra.lzma?

Pues deberías estar contento. Asrock J4105 con JUN'S LOADER v1.04b - DS918+, desde DSM 6.2.2 no deberías tener ni red. No es compatible con la NIC que lleva. Edit: me refería con el loader original de Jun. Esto es, sin el mod de real3x

cat /etc/fstab: none /proc proc defaults 0 0 /dev/root / ext4 defaults 1 1 /dev/md3 /volume2 btrfs auto_reclaim_space,synoacl,relatime 0 0 /dev/vg1000/lv /volume1 btrfs auto_reclaim_space,synoacl,relatime 0 0

I'm not a linux wise indeed 😨 I would like to use some temporal files in RAM with some scripts, but I can't see any tmpfs in DSM. Any clue to use RAM filesystem?

I'm sorry. My Mobo on 1.30. https://www.asrock.com/MB/Intel/J4105B-ITX/index.es.asp#BIOS

Yes. You should see screen like https://forums.servethehome.com/index.php?threads/lsi-9211-8i-it-mode-stuck-during-loading.8183/ if you flashed IT firm and ROM bios. Not if you only flashed only IT firm. In that case passthrought in "blind" mode. That referring to your old PC. Things could be different on J4105B. Not sure what happens if ROM bios flashed to LSI because of the lack of legacy BIOS mode support of the J4105B. I never tried because my LSI was ported from other PC without ROM, and worked after plugging. Once more, are you sure you don't need to crossflash the LSI card?. Just like https://marcan.st/2016/05/crossflashing-the-fujitsu-d2607/ https://www.servethehome.com/ibm-serveraid-m1015-part-4/ https://techmattr.wordpress.com/2013/08/30/sas-hba-crossflashing-or-flashing-to-it-mode/ Sorry for not posting in German. I just feel like hijacking this thread.

And did you try if it works on this PC?

Sorry to hear that. No special bios settings here. Advanced->ACPI Configuration->PCIE Devices Power On ( For WOL) Advanced->Storage->SATA Hot plug Disabled 2COM, HD Audio and some other things not used. I guess you should try your LSI card on another PC. If not flashed ROM but IT firm, it should passthrough , but not booting from these SATAs. Which brand is your LSI card? If IBM or DELL you have to crossflash. Did you flash the card on J4105B MOBO? Regarding front USB, working USB4_5 here, but not the other 4 front USB. Did you connect cables to front USB3_1_2 and USB2_3 headers or only to one of these headers? http://asrock.pc.cdn.bitgravity.com/Manual/J4105B-ITX.pdf

As you know, you'll have to edit /etc/synoinfo.conf and optionally /etc.defaults/synoinfo.conf to match to your config. I set MOBO 2 SATA ports as eSATA. According to my preferences: J4105B-ITX has 2 sata ports and 10 USB ports (5 USB2 y 5 USB3.1). LSI 9211-8i obviously has 8 sata ports. First come the 2 MOBO ports and then 8 from LSI. This way: 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0011 = esataportcfg 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 1111 1111 1100 0000 0000 = usbportcfg 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0011 1111 1100 = internalportcfg for f in "/etc/synoinfo.conf" "/etc.defaults/synoinfo.conf"; do sed -i 's/esataportcfg="0x.*"/esataportcfg="0x3"/g ; s/internalportcfg="0x.*"/internalportcfg="0x3fc"/g ; s/usbportcfg="0x.*"/usbportcfg="0xffc00"/g ; s/maxdisks=".*"/maxdisks="10"/g' $f; done Good luck PS: Please, would you be so kind to tell me if front USB can detect USB flash drives?

Avago LSI-9211-8i and Dell PERC H200 Crossflashed to Avago. Both Flashed_LSI-9211_P20.00.07.00 from https://www.broadcom.com/support/download-search/?dk=sas+9211-8i Flash only 2118IT.BIN, not MPTSAS2.ROM. For XPEnology you don't need boot from Disks. Flashed ROM will slow booting NAS and can be problematic with J4105B UEFI which doesn't support legacy mode BIOS.

Hi, Asrock J4105B-ITX + Avago LSI92211-8i working here. All in a Hp N54L Box. 1.04B DS918+ DSM 6.2.1 ☺️ All working fine but shared front USB3_1_2 and USB2_3, which can detect composite devices (keyboards and mouse) but no USB flash drives. But this is another story. Not sure about your problem. Unfortunately, I can´t understand German to help you. I'm spanish.

Yes, you are right. They gave me same tool, just before Christmas and they told me Asrock would be on holidays untill 2th january. I didn't dare flashing on Asrock's holidays and been busy later... Thanks a lot

I just upgraded my HP Gen7 (N54L) with a Asrock J4105B-ITX + Avago LSI9211-8i. It was a little tricky, but I did it. My second plan was to buy a new case. This one. By the way. Asrock Gemini Lake are only UEFI compatible, not legay BIOS (CSM mode). I don't know if it bothers you, but you would´t boot Freedos, for example. No way to flash MAC and some other issues.

Finally, I didn't buy a gen10. I bought a J4105B-ITX to upgrade my gen7. Maybe a little tricky, but amazing job anyway.

Maybe I'll buy a GEN10... I've searched and read all the forum about HP Gen10 & XPEnology, but still not clear. Please, which baremetal loader/DSM are successful for GEN10? I'd install a dual port intel NIC, by the way. What then?

Yo tengo actualizados dos AMD sin problema. Uno de ellos una placa Asrock también. El otro un HP N54L. Por el foro verás muchos N54L actualizados sin problema.Tendrás que utilizar el loader Jun 1.03b y DSM anterior a DSM 6.2.1-23824. ¡Ojo, no este último!

Yo tengo algo parecido a la alternativa 4 (Asrock QC5000). Pero con una controladora SAS LSI 9211-8i que adquirí en Aliexpress. Ella se encarga del trabajo duro, la gestión de hasta 8 SATAs muy eficientemente. El consumo es bajo y el sistema es potente. No obstante, AMD tiene algunas limitaciones de soporte de kernel frente a Intel. Por ejemplo, no puede ejecutar VMM.

What about USB-UPS? Is UPS detected or do you need USB hub?

Creo que no podrás poner los SATA en AHCI. Arrancará, pero no reconocerá ningún disco duro. Salvo que le instales una controladora SATA más moderna. Pero prueba.

I tried another AMD platform (Asrock QC5000-ITX/PH - AMD Quad Core) yesterday and it works without modding UEFI. I mean without disabling C1E. Not even sure if this option is available. v1.02b. First option. Baremetal.
