Just an FYI I upgraded my TerraMaster FS-420 from DSM_DS918+_25426 to DSM_DS918+_25426 update 2, I made a backup of the settings just in case. I use what I call my "TerraXpen NAS" as a backup device for my real Synology NAS. I mention this only because I knew if I lost everything I could start from the beginning and recreate the backups I already had. I downloaded the update closed my eyes (Just kidding How would I know if I was really clicking the correct button with my eyes closed.) The system did its thing after about only 3 minutes the system rebooted, I checked what version was installed and I was glad to see DSM_DS918+_25426 update 2. I confirmed I still had automatic updates was turned off in case the update reset things to automatic updates. and I am assuming all is well.

Yes!! Post notes! And a noob info on how to upgrade/update the firmware without losing all my data ^^. If it has hardware support for Plex to this will be awesome
I'm Sorry I am NOT a Linux guy I use it maybe 1-2 times a year usually dealing with Xpenology upgrades. I'm over 60 Y/O and frankly don't have time to really learn it (Linux guy's are free to flame me but when you get over 60 tell me you want to learn a whole new programing language) I end up looking up commands every time I try a new project.
I can not guarantee you won't lose you date I did my work as a clean install. I don't use Plex I use Emby and I don't care about transcoding Sorry. I'm working on info right now and will try to post as soon as I can.

Has anyone tried the latest 6.2.3-25426 with our F4-220? As per some other threads support for the Realtek r8168 chip should be included so it may just work out of the box.
In a word YES I have been working on what i did and exactly how so even NOOBS such as myself can do it. If you want I can pm you my rough notes and you can send me questions while I finish cleaning up my notes. This includes installing the fancontrol.

You can mount loader partition in telnet/ssh session and then edit grub.cfg

But when I figured out that the line with the three dots indicated when I should edit the grub.cfg things started to work (mind you - the VIM editor and me are not good friends)
So I have now successfully changed the MAC address .. and this time the XPe keeps it after a reboot
Thanks again
I wanted to thank you for this information. I'm using a Terramaster NAS F5-220 and the boot USB is inside and requires taking the whole thing apart. I had issues editing the grub.cfg file but as it turned out I was overthinking it and I cd/ to the tmp folder when I tried to cd /grub i got a message that the file /folder did not exist. I started over repaeted exactly what you provided then ran nano all worked as expected. Did I mention I use Linux maybe twice a year....:)

OK, this is what I did to get the terramaster nas running on 6.2.2. This is for a fresh install only. It may work for an upgrade but I have not tried it. Create a usb drive with 1.04b (setup your VID/PID, serial, mac, etc). Then download the extra.lzma that real3x created (that excludes the updated graphics driver modules that Jun included in 1.04b) and replace the one in the second partition on the usb drive with it. DO NOT delete the extra2.lzma from the USB drive as others have suggested. If you do, the system will not boot for install. Plug the usb, boot the system with a clean HDD (e.g. no synology partitions exist) and install the 6.2.2 update 4 pat file. I have this running on Terramaster F2-220, F4-220 and a qnap-453be. I recall reading somewhere in the tutorials that the J1800/J1900 cpus do not work with the updated i915 drivers )in 1.04b) for 918 installs.
Finally, if you attempt to use the vanilla 1.04b on these machines, they will boot up fine for install, but once the install is completed they will disappear from the network. seemingly the issue is with the updated graphics driver that causes issues in loading the realtek network driver.
I am waiting to try IG-88s new drivers but for the moment the above is working for me.
I have a TerraMaster F5-220 and a true synology I was able to load DSM 6.1.XXXXXX I have read you post several times. I am trying to load DSM 6.2.2 . only because there is a package I want to use and it requires 6.2.X or higher. You reference extra.lzma that real3x created (that excludes the updated graphics driver modules that Jun included in 1.04b) I can't For the life of me find the files you mentioned. I'm not lazy but the forum is a little like what happens in never speak of Usenet LOL. There must be some limitation that prevents hyperlinks to be used in the forums. As I mentioned I truly tried to find the files and follow your information. Would you be kind enough to help me out?
My error every time I tried to down load any of the files the process failed I was only getting the HTML file for the page. when I used a download manager I was able to download the Extra2.Lzma files. please forgive my brain fart.

I haven't Forgotten you I just have some serious medical issues (Not Coved-19 related) in my family that takes up a lot of my time. I'm back editing my notes and will try to get them posted as soon as I can.
