Hi boOmLa,

 

Yes, please follow the tutorial that shared by Dfds. viewtopic.php?f=2&t=22100

I did a testing on my another machine, 5.2 - 6.0 without problem.

However, still recommend you to back up the data and configuration file.

Also please make sure your computer have all the driver packed inside the Synoboot.img

 

 

Thank you.

Test i did :

I build a VM with XPEnoboot_DS3615xs_5.2-5967.1, and install the latest compatible version of DSM.

Then, i create 4 disk of 10 Go, and use RAID5 to create 1 volume.

 

I copy fiew thing inside the Volume (2630 files, 265 folder, 4.3 Go).

 

Now it's time to "upgrade"...

 

So i shutdown the VM (in fact, shutdown the NAS from the web interface), then i copy all new file from BootLoader V1.01, edit the VM setting and manually added existing VMDK (Disk1 to 4) ... In the non-VmWorld.. it's like create a new USB drive, and boot from it !

 

Then i use the "find.synology.com", Click on "install" and "migration", and manual install the new version of DSM (dowloaded from Synology Website).

 

Once reboot, i log into the new NAS. My old password was still working !

 

And the "Test" folder i create inside was still there !

 

I did that because when i update my DS410 from DSM4 to DSM5, it change a lot (like the file format from ext2or3 to ext4). I was thinking that i lost all of my data... but it was not the case, the Volume was still there. Only lost all setting from the NAS (username, installed package,...). So i re-create the username, then added to me the right to see all Shared folder that was not visible ... and everyhting return to normal !

 

 

What you have done here is very very much appreciated - really BIG thanx to find time to build at test environment to help - BIG thanx mate and keep up the good work and spirit

Hi Community,

 

I created a simple video to show the beginner how to prepare the Synoboot.img bootable device and also how to find your pendrive VID and PID.

Below is the youtube link.

 

Hope this will help the beginner on the preparation.

 

Thank you.

Thank you so much mate :- that was a big help for a noob like me.

Can I use the same method to upgrade (not a fresh install) from DSM 5.2-5644 on a barmetal mini computer (lenovo M700) to DSM 6.0.2 without data loss on the SSD ?

 

Thanx in advnced

 

Common guys cant wait for one to confirm the above - holding back couse of my lack of experience- Hope some one who knows if I preb. the USB with the latest boot image ver. 1.0.1 and install the DSM 6.0.2 over DSM 5.2-5644 will it merge my existing data on the HD and I can continue where I left off when it was on DSM 5.2 ?

 

PC= lenovo M700 tiny.

 

Thanx

Ok guys, first of all BIG BIG thanx for your great hard work.

I may sound as a noob, but I wanna be very coution when upgrading to DSM 6.0.2 from the latest 5.2 DSM...

Hope someone can confirm these steps to upgrade (Baremetal - Lenovo Thinkcentre M700):

 

1 - Flash the new loader boot image 1.0.1 to the USB

2 - Change VID & PID using 0x prefix

3 - >Install DSM 6.0.2

 

Is that it ? or did I miss something ?

Big thanx in advanced
