[Ubuntu kernel panic under VMM on DSM 6.1 on i3 Skylake 6100]

Hi,

 

I have issues running Ubuntu 18.04 under DSM 6.1.5-15254 Update 1 on an Intel i3 Skylake 6100 ... the VMM is the latest. I get kernel panic even when I boot the iso for starting an Ubuntu install.

 

I’ve tried all virtual hardware combination (bios/virtio, etc etc) and no luck.

 

In the same time, I have another system based on Intel Pentium G2030 (same DSM and VMM versions) and this one boots Ubuntu with no issues.

 

Windows under VMM/KVM on the other hand boots/installs ok on both DSM.

 

Any ideas ?

Why would you bother?
6.1.2 has Virtual Machine Manager (beta) and it supports any VM.

I was able to install, for example, Windows 7 with almost no effort.

The hypervisor is KVM.

[Tutorial: Install/Migrate DSM 5.2 to 6.0.2 (Jun's loader)]

Hi,

 

Just upgraded from 6.0.2 to 6.1.2 in 2 steps:

Step 1:

- used Jun's 1.02b bootloader on a new stick (different from the one previously used to boot 6.0.2)

- did a manual install of 6.1 (DSM_DS3615xs_15047) selecting to only keep the files and NOT the seetings. I was kinda forced to since I've previously f**ked my DSM during Virtual Machine Manager installation ... my fault for not being carefull enough)

Step 2:

- did a standard upgrade to latest version from Synology 6.1 Control Panel straight to 6.1.2

- after reboot everything was ok: files still there

 

I think it would have worked with keeping the settings as well (Step 1), but as I said, mine was broken anyway.  

WARNING !!! If you try this, be careful so you won't lose important settings of files !!! So, backup/test are a must.

 

I hope this helps.

Regards,
