    Compiled 7.0.1 with last BSP patch and works perfect ;)

    - Add UEFI support.
    - Deleted twice EFI folder.
    - Fixed SynoBoot_EFI place.
    - Compiled with last BSP Patch for 7.0.1.
    - Insmod efi_gop into EFI.
    - Tested with Baremetal and works fine (Astock 3455-ITX).
    - After installation (the reboot process can take 15-20 minutes) you have to install File Station manually: https://www.synology.com/en-us/support/download/DS918+#system (select DSM 7.0), find and download File Station SPK and install it in Package Center.

    Works well on my ASROCK 3455B-ITX, thanks very much.

    Although I discovered that the SYNOLOGY DRIVE SERVER and OFFICE packages cannot be installed. (I didn't try all, maybe there are still some more)

    Probably the same..
    RAID1 is just a mirror, so it should still work without the second disk..

     

    I would try..

    Configure your box with a new blank HDD on the previous DSM version on Sata port 1.. Do not configure any new shares or disks - just the base Synology install..

    Shut down and add in the 1st disk of your RAID1 pair to Sata port 2 (use whichever disk was connected to this port before - though dont think it makes a difference)..

    Reboot until it sees the drive, it should ask you if you want to repair the boot partition (or something similar). Your shares etc should appear as if by magic..

    Shut down and remove the 'new' Sata disk from Sata port 1..

    Boot up the box..

    If it looks OK, shut down and add the other RAID1 disk on Sata port 1.

    Boot the box, do the same 'repair option' again..

    That should be it...

     

    thanks very much for your help!

     

    Actually this method worked for me:

     

    WARNING: you'll loose your configuration and installed apps!

     

    1. create the syno pendrive from scratch (it's corrupted during upgrade)
    2. create an ubuntu live pendrive
    3. boot up linux and open terminal
    4. sudo -i
    5. apt-get install mdadm lvm2
    6. mdadm -Asf && vgchange -ay
    7. fdisk -l | grep /dev/sd
    8. mdadm -AU byteorder /dev/md0 /dev/sda1 /dev/sdb1                 (and list all your first partitions of the disks)
    9. mkfs.ext4 /dev/md0
    10. now all your 1st partitions are formatted, reboot removing ubuntu pendrive and inserting syno pen
    11. choose reinstall
    12. use manual install and select last working PAT
    13. wait....., and you'll be DONE (of course all apps and configs are lost, but data should be there)

    Downgrade 6.2.2 to 6-2-1

    Hi,

     

    if you don't mind to loose your configuration, but keep all data, then on my 2 disk RAID1 config (J3455B) this worked:

    1. create the syno pendrive from scratch (it's corrupted during upgrade)
    2. create an ubuntu live pendrive
    3. boot up linux and open terminal
    4. sudo -i
    5. apt-get install mdadm lvm2
    6. mdadm -Asf && vgchange -ay
    7. fdisk -l | grep /dev/sd
    8. mdadm -AU byteorder /dev/md0 /dev/sda1 /dev/sdb1                 (and list all your first partitions of the disks)
    9. mkfs.ext4 /dev/md0
    10. now all your 1st partitions are formatted, reboot removing ubuntu pendrive and inserting syno pen
    11. choose reinstall
    12. use manual install and select last working PAT
    13. wait....., and you'll be DONE (of course all apps and configs are lost, but data should be there)

    hope it helps.

    OK, so on my side the issue is solved, the modifed package is working fine!

    I don't know if every step was necessary or not, but

    • I've activated admin user,
    • changed apache to nginx and added soap to php in webstation
    • created a folder for VMs under my users home (after install I've changed the path also in config).

    So basically I've did everything what is described in the installation steps of the package.

    Thanks for your help!!!

    Working :

     

    DSM 6.1.4-15217 and the package from google cache : 5.1.30

     

    download the package

    edit 2 files in scripts folder:

    installer.sh

    vboxdrv.sh

    replace: REQUIRED_KERNEL_BUILD="15152" with REQUIRED_KERNEL_BUILD="15217"

     

    open path : VirtualBox_x64_5.1.30-118389-1.spk\package.tgz\package.tar\kernel_module\

    rename folder: 15152 with 15217

     

    all done with 7zip to open spk and edit the files & save, windows 10 guest and linux guests up and running in vbox in DSM 6.1.4 

     

    much better performance for windows10 guest in my case on HP N54L

     

    Hi Ygor, just tried your method, but didn't work for me.

    The only thing what I could find is theat the owner and group is modified from root to nothing if I work in 7zip.

    Do you have any idea, or could you share your working/modified package?
