I've the f4-220, and tested both the 1.03b ds3615 (DSM 6.2 update 2) and then the 1.04b ds918  (6.2.1 update 4) .

The best combo is to use the 1.03b ds3615 mainly because:

-there are many more third party packages available

-virtualbox 5.20 works (no package for apollo lake platform of the 918+)

-it's possible to use lm-sensors package to control the fan speed of our nas (otherwise it just spins upd and down constantly and in bios there's no option to control it)

...Just my two cents

 

Could you please share the bios settings that you used? I'm asking, because with 1.03b I get no IP on boot

Could you please show the options you select in the BIOS?

As for 1.04b, I also read that NIC limitation, but for 1.03b, there as several reports on this thread that point in another way, with successful boot on 6.2.

I'm quite way behind, because I can't even get the installation screen ( no IP).

Hi all.

 

I'm quite new to XPEnology, but I've been using a DS216j for some months.

 

I also have a F2-220 that I would like to hack just for the fun.

 

loader 1.02b with DSM 6.1 works like a charm.

No matter what combinations I try, I'm not able to get an IP address with 1.03b or 1.04b with DS3615xs, DS3617xs and DS918+. As so I cant start the installation process. Drivers shouldn't be the problem since the Ethernet it's a realtek 8111/8411/8168

I read about legacy boot, tried several bios changes, with no positive result. Tried to bott UEFI, Legacy, same result. Maybe I'm not changing the correct parameters.

 

Could someone point me in the right direction?
