fyi I have installed on a Bare metal N40L. On this machine I have disabled the on-board nic and replaced it with a natively supported Intel nic.
Changed the boot config to ignore my boot usb stick, I also added / changed the script to allow usb devices to be recognised when plugging them into the box
(this has been documented further back in the thread)
Issues:
1. I cannot change the boot order that was originally suggested in the first post, I have to keep it on "install'
2. Obviously the btrfs issues
3. Shutdown via the web-gui does not work
4. WOL does not work after manually entering poweroff via the console
As my machine usually runs 24/7 this is not really a problem...
I have managed to get the shutdown correctly working by implementing the process http://xpenology.me/how-to-activate-wol/. However the path seems to have changed and is no longer /USR/SYNO/etc/rc.d/ but is /usr/syno/etc/rc.sysv
The shutdown via the web-gui works, but WOL does not. As I'm not a linux expert this is probably the end of the line here, but I will have a look further. I think it might have to do with the fact that I'm not using the onboard nic of my box (N40L) but a extra pce-i intel nic.
Ok, have now managed to activate WOL. For some reason setting WOL in the UI and directly in the file responsible does not work. I have created a little script that is run on startup that does nothing else than set the wol settings... ethtool eth0 -s wol g

After doing this WOL works...
