  1. hello, I'm trying to install Xpenology DS3612XS_3211 1.2v repack by Trentor on HP N54L, but I have a problem!

     

    I set the bios to have the first boot on usb.

     

    then turned off HP N54L. I prepared the usb stick with win32diskimager, I inserted on N54L and when the screen is black with the word "grub loading Stage 1.5. Grub loading, please wait ... Error 17".

     

    What can I do?

  2. Thank you again :smile:

     

    Making a list:

    1) I have to burn the usb stick with WIN32DISKIMAGER

    2) connect to N54L monitor with VGA cable and mouse + keyboard

    2) insert the usb stick in N54L

    3) start N54L

    4) Open Synology Assistant on pc

    5) synology assistant when he found N54L, confirm and remove the usb stick from N54L. Then you have to follow the instructions through the monitor.

    6) when N54L is restarted because of Synology Assistant, insert the usb stick on N54L

    7) the installation is finished on the inside N54L with usb stick, right?

    8) leave the usb stick always on N54L, right?

  3. Ah, now I understand!

     

    Considering that for the moment I'll just 1 hard drive, and I do not care put 5, I avoid to modify the BIOS , right? :smile:

     

    In my case that N54L does not go online but it is only connected via LAN cable crossover to the pc , I have to do what you did for changing the MAC address ?

     

    Practically the guide for my needs would start from " Started the install of XPEnology_trantor_v1.2_DSM_DS3612xs_3211.pat from Synology Assistant.

    Set the admin password and the name of my server.

    I went with DHCP , but you may Set the IP -address to be fixed During the install.

     

    When the server reboots in the process , I put in the USB stick again .

     

    The server finished the install and a few moments later it was ready for access from the browser. " ?

     

     

    I did not understand very well. I have to burn xpenology in the pen with win32diskmanager usb , pen usb to connect N54L , and from there you install it, right? (I think during installation, you must be connected to the internet and a monitor right?) .

     

    After installing it on N54L , N54L restarts, and I can remove the usb, right?

     

    The last thing , N54L connect to pc windows 7 professional 64bit with crossover LAN cable , install Synology Assistant on the PC, and then everything is ready to exchange data ?

     

     

    PS: now the download file works, but is very slow, I try to download it later :wink:

  4. Thank you :smile:

     

    the problem is that I do not need to share files and do not have to enter it from other devices, I do not need the wireless card;)

     

    For my needs, it may be sufficient to install a PCI-EX as Gigabit TP LINK-TG3468, and we connect a cross cable from the PC to N54L?

     

    I believe this is the only connection possible: (so I can use N54L without monitor and manage it from a PC?

    You need the IP address to start configuring. At least for the installation part. DHCP server on router or workstation will give this nas a starting ip. After you see it with synology assistant and have configured static address, you can use it with your crossover cable connected simple network. DHCP server will no longer needed.

    To get the IP address I connect N54L to the router at least when I configure xpenology?

    Then once this step is done, I can disconnect N54L from the router and connect it to the PC with only crossover cable?

    (can you tell me the procedure for configuring, please?)

  5. Hi _NAS?

     

    I have just installed a N54L with XPEnology by trantor. Thanks to trantor for an amazing job!!

    I used "XPEnology DS3612xs DSM 4.2 build 3211++ (repack v1.2)" which is working very well for me.

     

    I have made a little guide to how I did it, but I don't know if I'm allowed to post links to a collection of files. You see, I have packed all the files I have used into one ZIP.

     

    I would love to post my guide - it is not fancy with pictures or anything - but I want to have a green light to do it, as I'm new to this forum and don't want to be banned for posting illegal posts.

     

    Hi Zarocq,

    can you send me the link for downloading xpenology you used it, please?

     

    well put here the content of your guide, will be welcome;)

  6. Thank you :smile:

  7. I apologize again, have patience but for me it's hard to find the right solution in a few clicks. it's hard because I know little English, and having little experience even in the pc, if I don't find the right solution I could do damage: (

     

    You could give me the guide easy to follow, please?

     

    You would advice a stable version of xpenology for N54L?

     

    I am forced to connect N54L to the pc(without sending N54L online). With xpenology N54L can be used without a monitor and manage it only from pc?

     

    You're right, I could simply an external HDD enclosure 3.5 "with 4 bay. (I wanted to buy Fantec QB-35US3. In Italy cost around £ 121 while N54L about 136£.

    The difference is small and I have a product with higher quality.

    Due to some problems setting up the network (due to the phone provider / adsl) I find myself with a strange connection and I can not connect a router/switch Gigabit send N54L online at one time and the pc.

     

     

    Have a nice day :smile:

  8. Hello, I also have to buy HP N54L.

     

    There are problems with Xpenology or work well?

     

    How do I install it? (I can do it with usb or do I buy a cd player?)

    The Italian language is available?

    Where can I find a comprehensive and easy?

     

     

    After installing it, I can handle HP N54L (without monitor) directly from the PC that has Windows 7 Professional 64bit?

     

    Seriously, all these questions are already answered in the big thread! Just read it...

    But for your sake, and the 2l energy drinks I have in me, I'm gonna answer.

     

    There are problems with Xpenology or work well?

    It works fine for me. Some obviously hardware-locked features are of course not working, but they are mostly related to stuff you wouldn't even use the way Synology implemented it. E.g. the BIOS settings.

     

    How do I install it? (I can do it with usb or do I buy a cd player?)

    The threads describe it pretty well. You'll need a small USB drive, 256MB+ preferred, burn the boot disk on it, plug it in on the motherboard USB slot, and commence with the install as described.

     

    The Italian language is available?

    Yes it has. You can set language for the whole system, or for a given user. You also have to separately set the notification language, as it is global.

     

    Where can I find a comprehensive and easy?

    Comprehensive and easy what? Girl? I suppose the red-light house on the edge of the town would supply those :grin:

     

    After installing it, I can handle HP N54L (without monitor) directly from the PC that has Windows 7 Professional 64bit?

    Yes. DSM is a web interface oriented OS, every management is done on the UI. If you add a monitor, all you get is shell access. Which comes useful sometimes, but you can usually do everything on the web interface.

    Also it is OS independent. As long as it has a web browser that can access the web server (e.g. same network, or your NAS is globally available), you can even manage it from your fridge/oven/microwave.

     

    Thank you fonix232, you are ver kind :smile:

     

    To burn the boot disk on usb drive, can I use the program "unetbootin"?

    Before you start the installation of Xpenology with the usb drive, go into the BIOS, can you tell me the combination of buttons, please?

    (sorry for these trivial questions, but I am not expert)

     

    When I inserted the usb drive, to install everything in Italian there are flags to activate, or are there shortcuts to activate it?

     

    where you wrote "Where can I find a comprehensive and easy?

    Comprehensive and easy what? Girl? I suppose the red-light house on the edge of the town would supply Those :grin: ", google translator, when I wrote before, he missed a word :grin:

    Was wondering if there was a simple guide to follow the installation without any problems.

     

    My problem is that HP N54L not I put it online, it will be connected with the PC via a network cable only. ( in the pc add a Gigabit PCI to communicate with N54L ) .

    Will I be able to use N54L anyway without a monitor, although N54L does not go online?

     

    Which stable version of xpenology to install on N54L ?

  11. Hello everyone, I am going to create a server/nas with Amd a4 5300 or Amd a6 5400.

     

    How do I install xpenology? (I like to be able to access from the PC to the server without any problems. The server does not have the monitor)

     

    To learn how to use xpenology wanted to learn to use it by installing it into the pc with virtualbox, how could I do?

     

     

    have a nice day,

    _NAS?
