Hi guys, I have a problem, I am trying to update an existing 5.2 system. I unplugged all the existing drives and just plugged in a spare drive just to test the hardware. I followed the guide with the VID/PID and MAC address changes. I booted from USB fine, used the browser to update the .pat (using DSM_DS3615xs_15152.pat) and it uploads it and then at around 56% progress a red 'Unknown exception' message' shows up and installation halts.
The MB is a
ECS NM70-I2 (V1.0) Intel Celeron 1037U 1.80GHz Intel NM70
I have an extra SATA Controller (IO Crest 4 Port SATA III PCI-e 2.0 x1 Controller Card Marvell Non-Raid with Low Profile Bracket SI-PEX40064) plugged in and I saw that a user said it worked out of the box for them.
Any ideas on how to proceed?
Thanks in advance.

Last time I updated was to DSM_DS3615xs_5644 with all the updates up to synology_bromolow_3615xs upd5.
The reason I want to upgrade is to go from 1 drive replication to 2 drive replication. Otherwise, I would leave it alone.

My question is, which tutorial and set of files/loaders, etc is current and applicable to my current set up?
Thanks

It is working on an older version of XPenology, I wonder if it is still working in the latest version.
Thx

ok then, I need the 4493 .pat and the nanoboot img I guess. Do we know if this is an in-place upgrade for existing 4,2/4.3 installations?
-
Poechi, why do I need the new boots? What's wrong with the synoboot that trantor provides?
-
Can someone give a quick pointer as to how to upgrade from existing working installation of DSM 4.2-3211 ?
Perform the manual update from the update menu?
Thx in advance

Hello,
since WOL has not worked for me out-of-the box, I decided to create this thread where we can share experience on this topic.
For some reason activating WOL over the GUI (Control Panel|Hardware) fails and does not have any effect. If WOL is supported by your HW configuration this is how you should get it running (DSM4.2):
Prerequisite:
• Find out the real MAC address of your Ethernet adapter (not the faked one by xpenology!) e.g. by booting linux/win form liveCD
• Enable WOL options corresponding to your HW in BIOS
1. Activate the WOL setting on your Ethernet adapter:
a. Enable SSH service (Control Panel|Terminal) and login (e.g. via putty) as root with admin password
b. Run following command: “ethtool -s eth0 wol g” (assumed eth0 is your Ethernet adapter)
2. Power off your system as usual
3. Now wake-up your system by sending a WOL magic packet using the REAL MAC address of your Ethernet adapter. There are many tools over internet which can do this; such a functionality is integrated in some router’s FW (e.g. dd-wrt)
Your system should boot up normally -this worked for me on two different systems. Now I am searching for a good way how to persist this setting in synology.
As a work-around you can set up a task (executing the above command) with DSM 4.2’s integrated Task Scheduler or via the 3rd party “Cronjob Editor” which is periodically executed once the system has booted.
Have fun!
I got this when I tried ethtool -s eth0 wol g
"Cannot get current wake-on-lan settings: Operation not permitted
not setting wol"

Undecided -- That motherboard and CPU combo looks like a very good value. Do all of the features (including WOL) work well with XPEnology 4.2? Also, what case and power supply did you use for your build? Thanks in advance.
I haven't been able to get WOL to work. Someone told me to try this:
viewtopic.php?f=2&t=1028&start=260#p6660
But I have not had a chance yet.
I did use a hex editor to fix the MAC Address.
I also used the scheduler and the NAS shuts itself off and turns itself back on just fine.
I added a Syba mini pci-express SATA 3 card so now I have 6 sata ports. I also added a 4-port USB3.0 pciexpress card so now I have usb 3.0 ports as well but I have not had a need for them yet.
I don't even need the 6 SATA ports yet, I have 4 disks in there.
The case I used is an old Lian Li I've had for a while now
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 6811112266
Takes standard ATX PSU but I did not trust the PSU I had so I used a thermatake 180w FlexAtx PSU I had lying around.

Who do you thunk will carry the AAEON EMB-QM87A?
-
I used a FoxConn D70S-P. Celeron 1037U. Only 17W. It could possibly handle 2 1080p transcodes but no guarantee. Only $80 though and only thing you need is some DDR3.
p.s. I love your first 2 choices but are they available in the US?
-
What is in there that is so appealing compared to 4.2? Let's assume that I don't care for anything other than pure NAS functionality.
-
I'd like to ask why I can't get the WOL to set. When I try to set it I get an error. The serial # and the MAC address were set properly and I see that on router.
-
I can confirm that 4.2 3211 works fine with this chipset....
-
That worked great, thanks a bunch

Only issue I have is with the add-on mini-pci express SATA card. DSM does not see any drives attached to that. Without it, I am limited to 4 drives on the onboard SATA.
It's a ASMedia ASM1061 based card with 2 6Gbit SATA ports.
For driver request please use : viewtopic.php?f=2&t=1361&p=6528#p6528
Thanks, I'd like to report the ASMedia card works now. It was a defective card and it was replaced. Everything is great!

Success on a FoxConn D70S-P Mini-Itx Celeron 1037U.
Everything seems to be working except the WOL. It says 'Error setting WOL' every time I try to set it.
The board has the N70 chipset and Realtek 8111F LAN chip.

Well, it's confirmed, it doesn't work on 4.2. Any drive plugged into this card is not visible in DSM.
-
Any luck with this? I also ordered a ASMedia ASM1061 based card hoping to add more drives to the build I am about to start.
-
Is it working? If yes, On which build?
Thanks

Thanks, I will give it a shot
