  1. Guys , who is still using the HP gen 8 with the cougar in passtrough mode?

    My datastore is on a seperate SSD drive, on a seperata SATA controller, i boot esxi from the microsd

    Cougar is set to passtrough mode

     

    I stuggled a long time to get my disks visible, until i define it like below, but i'm still on 6.1 , mauybe time to update

    ALready tested the new loaders, but again, the disks on the cougar controller are gone

     

    How do you guys manage this

    esataportcfg="0x1000"
    usbportcfg="03000000000"    
    internalportcfg="fffffffff"

    Hi. I added a 1265L v2. To anyone coming back to this, I got mine of AliExpress. Spent about R2K (South African Rands) and took 3 months, but came through in the end.

    Added a GT1030, cause the GPU choices were getting expensive for what can go into the Gen8.

    Satisfied though. Does Plex and some other docker stuff. Kodi and Steam on Ubuntu 22.04 currently.

     

    Anyone can recommend better GPU or let me know about eGPU's (dont mind a little lag).

     

    Thought of Thunderbolt card to eGPU. Or any recommendations?

    And is Plex using that GPU card? Does it fit on the gen 8 microserver? I have already 1 slot occuped for internal data card for SSD storage ...  Don't remember anymore if there was a second...

    Do you run 3615 ?

  4. guys, is there something wrong with the 6.2.4 loader?

    I have an Hp Gen 8 , with esxi, the bootlader is on sata disk 0:0 , my extra hard disk is at sata disk 0:0

    i have below configured

        "SataPortMap": "2",
        "DiskIdxMap": "00"

     

    if i do this : sudo ./rploader.sh build bromolow-7.0.1-42218

    i can perfect install a DSM 7 system, it works perfect had it running for a few days, during .pat upload the installed told me DSM is going to be installed on DISK 2

     

    i do the exact same process, now with this command, a clean host in esxu

    sudo ./rploader.sh build bromolow-6.2.4-25556

     

    i upload that specific pat file, again i get the message that it will install on disk 2 , it completes to 100%

    i do a reboot, but its back at the setup start again?? for a new .pat file upload?

     

    whats wrong?

    After this reboot, i'm back at point 1

     

     

    what could be wrong?

     

  5. Who is using here an Hp Gen 8 microserver with esxi (trying 6.2.4)

    on sata controller 0:0 => attached the boot vmdk

    on sata controller 0:1 => attached the extra hard disk for DSM

     

    what should be me sataportmap and DiskIdxMap , i tried for sataportmap 1 or 2 , and diskmapid 00 , it installs the DSM fine, it completes back to 100% , but after reboot it comes back to DSM install, seems i think its always installing on the 0:0 disk??

     

    also, if i do a change in the user json fle for the mappings, do i need run this command again?  

    ./rploader.sh build bromolow-6.2.4-25556 

     

    thnx

     

     

  6. Guys, setting up 6.2.4 with this loader, configured sataportmap 2 

    running on esxi, first disk is the synoboot, second disk, is a new disk

     

    all is working fine,  its booted, i can select the .pat file to upload, its installing, it completes to 100%

    i do a reboot, and its back in setup mode?  the new hard disk is 16 GB in size, is it maybe to low?

     

    edit: also tried 50 GB as disk, didnt help either :-( 

    after reboot, it goes back to setup mode

    Use the Esxi internal converting Tool as mentioned here. Works good, Boot via BIOS Mode at SATA 0:0

     

    @NoFate thy change Ethernet to non passthrough. Maybe create image ne with this setting. Then test. Mostly wrong driver, KP at early Boot.

    Hey, i'm a step further now, i gave it more cpu, and i also changed the MAC on the esxi , with the one from the file, now i can find it on the network, but when i upload the .pat file, i get this :s

  8. dont get it, did al the steps, when i reboot, i see below, looks fine normally

    but i cant ping it anymore, never comes online, find.synology.com isnt finding anything

    steps:

     

    ./rploader.sh serialgen DS3615xs now

    changed mac manually afterwards

    ./rploader.sh satamap now 

    ./rploader.sh backup now

    ./rploader.sh build bromolow-7.0.1-42218
