- Additional comments:
-- This was by no means plain sailing, I got the ERROR 13 first due to the wrong PAT file, make sure you get the critical one and not the standard one from their site.
--Then after installing I had nothing, no ping nothing. I had a NC360L in the cupboard so installed that but could not find a way to find the MAC so left the grub as it was and disabled the internal NICs in the BIOS.
--Then when I tried to switch on the HP gen 8 it would just sit there and blink a green light, for hours, after some digging I found that replacing the CMOS battery will fix it which it did.. I know...Random right!
--I then had life, but got a message stating no HARDDRIVES from DSM - so back to the BIOS and I disabled the internal RAID and switched on AHCI and it now works
-- Internal NIC not recognized
-- HDDs lost until ACHI switched on
