I am running KVM on AMD host, and have a working DSM 7.1 using the below: sudo su ./rploader.sh update now ./rploader.sh fullupgrade now ./rploader.sh serialgen DS1621+ ./rploader.sh satamap v1000-7.1.0-42661 ./rploader.sh backup now ./rploader.sh ext v1000-7.1.0-42661 add https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pocopico/redpill-load/master/redpill-virtio/rpext-index.json ./rploader.sh build v1000-7.1.0-42661 auto poweroff I have then added three 8TB SATA drive using disk/by-id method (SATA). I have been using these in a DSM6 for the past year, with no issues, these still contain the same RAID 5 config. Now when in the new DSM7 gui, the 3 SATA drives are not visable, BUT they are visible if I SSH into the DSM. using 'fdsik -l' shows this: Disk /dev/sata2: 7.3 TiB, 8001563222016 bytes, 15628053168 sectors Disk model: HARDDISK Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disklabel type: gpt Disk identifier: D5DF9490-0AC3-4756-94E4-C32ADD7FFAA7 Device Start End Sectors Size Type /dev/sata2p1 2048 4982527 4980480 2.4G Linux RAID /dev/sata2p2 4982528 9176831 4194304 2G Linux RAID /dev/sata2p3 9437184 15627848351 15618411168 7.3T Linux RAID Why can't I see them in the GUI, what am I doing wrong please?

I got this working, with help, using this before build command, this loaded the correct drivers: ./rploader.sh ext v1000-7.1.0-42661 add https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pocopico/redpill-load/master/redpill-virtio/rpext-index.json

I have an AMD 3900x, using KVM hypervisor. I am trying to spin up a DS1621+ Im using the below: tinycore-redpill.v0.4.6.img for 1st SATA drive, creating a 2nd SATA drive at 40G. Boot into the tinycore, ifconfig to get IP, then ssh in to run the below commands. sudo su ./rploader.sh update now ./rploader.sh fullupgrade now ./rploader.sh serialgen DS1621+ (copy the MAC address and using on the VM) ./rploader.sh satamap v1000-7.1.0-42661 ./rploader.sh backup now ./rploader.sh build v1000-7.1.0-42661 auto poweroff With VM shutdown, I replace the MAC address with the one from above, then power the VM back on, botting from the Sata drive. I get to 'Booting the kernel', but http://find.synology.com/ finds nothing. Anything anyone can see I am doing wrong please?

I also have a KVM hpervisor using AMD 3900x. Could you describe your install procedure please?

Hi, I've been following this thread, but can't get an DHCP IP, tried E100e and VirtIO, neither give an allocated IP. I am on KVM (virsh/virtio), using Virt-Manager. I have been using Xpenology for a couple of years, with the standard Jun's bootlaoder / E100e / Sata, but using this bootloader I can't get it working. Is there something obvious I am missing to get this working with VirtIO network?

I finally bit the bullet and installed Proxmox, followed your idea, assigned an e1000 nic for management, then added a vmxnet3 nic attached to my 10G network, assigned static IP in the synology GUI, but synology only reports the vmxnet3 nic to be 1G (not 10G), and file transfers were also around 1G. I repeated the same exercise in KVM, same results. So I'm back to the search for working virtIO network drivers. Anyone have any updates on this front please?

Hi IG-88, just checking if you had any chances to look at the virtIO driver please? Kind regards.

Hi Evgenii, I appreciate your help on this, but I can't get it to work my end at all, I am on KVM, not Proxmox, so can't follow your example config exactly.

I did try this previously and again, I couldn't get it working. Im using 1.04b. I have an already working Xpenology using e1000e, I shut it down, then instead of e1000e, I manually type vmxnet3, turn on the vm, but I can discover it on my network. Is there anything I need to do differently?

Yes indeed, I am the OP. My point was VirtIO driver showing 100G (I don't have 100G nic or switch, I have 10G), but therefore the Driver is not the bottle neck, where e1000 is. I have multiple KVM hosts, all with 10G nics, so using an e1000 driver is not great.

For example, I have 3 drives in Raid 0, so HDD speed wise, I should hit around 260MB/s. The e1000 driver is only around 100MB/s, so copying large files can be slow. The VirtIO driver (in Windows at least) is 100G, so there is not bottleneck in the NICs.

Just checking in, see if theres any update please?

Hi, just to update on a couple of things. I guess its best to make a special version for testing with kvm - Yes, a KVM specific version would probably be easier to debug. anything that should not be loaded with kvm? anything special needed beside virtio modules? - Not that I am aware of no. can you see over virtual serial port whats happens? - see below for example serial output using a modded 1.02b whats the emulated network chip in kvm or what choices you have? - That I do not know GNU GRUB version 2.02~beta2-36ubuntu3.9 ����������������������������������������������������������������������������Ŀ � DS3617xs 6.1 Baremetal with Jun's Mod v1.02b � � DS3617xs 6.1 Baremetal with Jun's Mod v1.02b Reinstall � �*DS3617xs 6.1 VMWare/ESXI with Jun's Mod v1.02b � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � ������������������������������������������������������������������������������ Use the ^ and v keys to select which entry is highlighted.

Hi, more than happy to test whatever's needed, might just need some guidance. As like a few others, virtio is the main thing which is holding us back with KVM / Proxmox / Unraid. Kind regards.

Anyone get any further with this, would love to get this working.
