    Could you please consider adding some grub features like having the capability to tell grub to load a particular boot menu entry for next boot only Normal Grub implementation supports this as: grub-set-default 1 However grub doesnt seem to be available in tcrp loader mode. link: https://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/legacy/Booting-once_002donly.html

    I also debated going to ds920. But I wasn’t sure about the different sata mapping method tcrp uses for that so I decided to go with the 918. to tell you the truth I performed a high risk task for this migration. I did this all remote from across the country lol. I tested in a vm environment first, repeated all the conversions steps etc multiple times to make sure I wouldnt lose access to the remote setup at any point. It was dumb of me to do this, but at the end it did work successfully. I have some very rough notes that I documented for all of this. I can pm you those if you want.

    I don’t know the details as to how and at what network level this MAC mapping is done, but I see your point. from what I see, ifconfing on the xpenology and also on my home router, both show the Mac I had specified in tarp. in the past I’ve used the real mad for my Nic because I wanted to use WOL. Though I don’t need that anymore. But someone here mentioned that wol works with fake Mac also! I haven’t tried.

    ok so i was referring to my baremetal system here which is based on intel i3-8100. But that is only relevant for the HW video transcoding portion. As for TCRP build, most people use the "serialgen" command of tcrp, which generates serial/MAC combo. These are not REAL serials/MAC and has no impact on network connectivity. However in my case, i was looking to install and actviate synoloyg's advance media codec pack. Which ony works if i use REAL synology serial and MAC combo. So for that i used that info in my tcrp build, no other reason.
  5. alirz1
    No, baremetal.

    so apparently when i converted my ds3266 box to ds918+ using tcrp 0.8.5. It enabled/added the necessary extension to support hardware decoding. After the migration to ds918 /dev/dri was already there and i have successful HW decoding working with PLEX. I also used real Ds918 mac and serial so i also have the advanced media codec working successfully for HECV support in synology photos etc.

    is there any hope in getting i915 gpu driver to work for 11th gen intel cpus e.g Jasper lake , celeron N5095A
  8. alirz1
    Thank you for the reply. Hopefully a last question. What about for intel i3-8100, coffee lake cpu? Do your drivers cover that? If so, do i need to copy additional firmware files other than the 3 bin files files you mentioned. Thanks again.
  9. alirz1
    Ok thanks. So what would be my option, To compile the driver's myself? If so, I don't know if I have enough know-how for that to be honest. Do you know if the drivers for jasoerlake for ds918 platform exist anywhere? Thank you.

    @blackmangaHi I had been banging my head for weeks to try to get HW transcoding to work in plex on my ds918 xpenelogy , DSM 7.1.0 42661 with TCRP loader, setup. i think your thread here is prbably the closes im getting to making it work. I have a mini pc with lntel N5095A processor. I have copied over the .ko fies from your first post here. What i dont understand, do i need to copy over some firmware bin files also? So far i did run your scripts, but dont think they worked on my setup because the /dev/dri is still missing. Therefore i wondering if need to copy over some bin files before running your scrut. Would really appreciate your help here. THanks

    Well I was able to sort my own issue. By using sataport map of 22 and disk Id of 00. ps. Would some have any pointers for me to get hw transcoding to work under ds918,dsm 7.1 setup. Using real Mac and serial. Even have synologys advanced media codec pack installed and activated. I seem to be missing the /dev/dri directory.
  12. alirz1
    any luck with this? Im having same issue. However for me the /dev/dri doesnt even exist. using real mac/SN. Advanced media codec pack also installed and activated.

    Any way of asking grub to boot into tcrp loader mode for "next boot only". Assuming my starting state is a fully/normal booted up xpenology baremetal. I want to attempt something remotely and dont want to manually and permanently set the default boot menu to be tcrp incase something goest wrong. I do have the capability of remotely power cycle the box. i know in standard grubg we can use "grub-reboot" followed by the entry we want to use for next boot but i cant find where the grub boot binary is located in tcrp.

    DS3622xs seems to be the most common platform, unless you want hardware video transcoding then ds918 seems to be the way to go.

    where is the "grub" binary located in tiny core. I want to execute a "grub-reboot" command to boot into a different menuentry only for the next boot.
  16. alirz1
    Ds3622, dsm 7.1

    Bought a NUC style small PC to play with. Testing trcp 0.8.5 on it. But running into several issue during build. First: tc@box:~$ ./rploader.sh satamap now Found "00:17.0 Intel Corporation Device 4dd3 (rev 01)" Detected 2 ports/1 drives. Bad ports: 1. Override # of ports or ENTER to accept <2> Computed settings: SataPortMap=2 DiskIdxMap=00 i figured ill set the port map to 1, which i did afterwrds in the user_config file, to try to overcome this issue? the mini pc only has a single ssd drive in it? Second thing i notice during the build process was: It looks that you will need the following modules : Found VGA Controller : pciid 8086d00004e55 Required Extension : No matching extension Found SATA Controller : pciid 8086d00004dd3 Required Extension : No matching extension Third i ran into this: Entering synoesp extract rd.gz finish cpio: dev/console: Cannot mknod: Operation not permitted cpio: dev/net/tun: Cannot mknod: Operation not permitted 42506 blocks extract rd mkdir: cannot create directory '/mnt/sdb3/auxfiles': File exists Copying required files to local cache folder for future use At that point the process was still continuing but i decided to kill it. Should i be concerned with those errors or are they warning? The first file about the sata port seems to suggest that dsm install will fail. Would appreciate some input from knowledgeable folks who might know about this, Thanks. EDIT: I updated the build process and reboot. It takes me to the DSM install web interface but says no drives were detected.

    is it possible to update an existing usb flash drive with tcrp 0.8.5 to the latest 0.9.x tcrp loader without have to write the image on the usb drive? ./rloader fullupgrade now doesnt do anything as is. Is there a a repo update or something needed to pull the new version? Thanks Essentialyl i'm looking to go from DSM 7.1.x to 7.1.1 and as i understand i cannot do that with tcrp 0.8.x?
  19. alirz1
    Thanks. My issue seemed to have been disk space on the loader lartition as I was testing with a VM and the vmdk for tcep was 1gb. I haven't tried anything with the ARPL if that's what your referring to for the menu.sh?

    Im running into the follow error when trying to convert my existing ds3622 to ds918. Ive tried running ./rploader.sh clean.

    @Peter SuhIm testing editing the grub in a VM. I can mount the synoboot1 partition and edit the grub default to be 3(tiny core loader). However at reboot its still on boot menu 2 and goes into DSM boot instead of tinycore loader.

    By the way a correction to my statement. Im looking to convert my ds3622 to ds918+ NOT ds920+. Im curious If convert my baremetal ds3622xs+ with 5 HDDs to a DS 918+. Would i only be able to use 4 disk drives as the real ds918 only has 4 drives or the umber of drives doesnt matter to the model? Thank you
