[DSM 6.1.x Loader]

@Ziomalsky :

I could upgrade an ESXI to 6.1 with no problem (download from Synology site).

The underlying server is a Dell T130 (low end config).

I never use XPEnology on a barebone computer...

 

 

Failed on VMware Workstation 12.0.1

 

After the 6.1 upgrade, the Web console say the harddisk is moved to DS3615xs and ask me to recover (loop)

Both upgrade and new install failed in the same way

 

I'm on an R710 with passthrough H200 running under ESXi 6.5, and i have the exact same issue.

Is there a better way of hiding the boot drive on ESXI or should I still add rmmod=ata_piix to the list of parameters?

Edit: Doesn't seem to work. I've tried both ata_piix and rmmod=ata_piix as extra arguments

 

Did you ever manage to hide the boot drive?

Yes, I just converted the image to IDE and appended rrmod. Can't remember the details though, but I will check that once I get the time.

 

I'm also very interested. Maybe it could be quicker if you can share your modified image.

Hi,

 

i'm using ESXi, and a 12 drives setup. how can i hide the synoboot ide drive or placing it in the 13th position, because i can't see my last disk.
