  1. Hi,

     

    I have followed the steps but I am trying to move from baremetal to esxi 6.7 install, I get as far as manually installing the pat file but now I am stuck in a loop where it just says the system is recoverable, each time I go through the recovery process I end up back at the same point. Has anybody had a similar experience or any ideas on what I could try to resolve the problem?

     

    Thanks

    did you have a look into the link above?

    it documents the capabilities for each loader

    918+ can do uefi but its kernel need certain cpu features intel haswell and newer and persumably pildriver as min. for amd

    afair i used a A8 about two years ago to test 918+ drivers

     

    Yeah have just re tried again using 918+ loader but same result unfortunately :( I don't even have a serial port on the motherboard either to try and see what is going on behind the scenes.  

     

    Unless you have anymore ideas I guess I will have to stick with 6.1.7.

    usually loader 1.02b (dsm 6.1) i s a safe bet

    read this

    https://xpenology.com/forum/topic/13333-tutorialreference-6x-loaders-and-platforms/

    might help to see why  uefi (without csm) might not work

     

    Yes I am using 1.02b at the minute but that is booting in uefi mode, same thing happens with my other usb drive with 1.02b if I disable this and use legacy boot.

    3615/17, loader 1.03b

    when using csm/legacy mode in bios is also important to restart again after activating it to see the non uefi boot device of the usb, that would be the one to choose

     

    I have gave this another try but same result unfortunatley

    918+, loader 1.04b

    i dont know what cpu you use but this loader need a cetain minimal cpu type, for intel it's haswell

    from the specs it looks like a piledriver capable board and these A4/A6/A8/A10 cpu's should at least boot with 918+ loader

     

    Can I use uefi boot with 918+ or is it across the board for this release that needs to be booted in legacy? I am using an AMD FX770k which is socket FM2+ (piledriver) so might give this a try if its uefi compatible.

    depends on the dsm version you want to install but just for trying to find it in network you just boot up 1.03b as it comes, even the vid/pid (usb) part is not important as long as its just about loader booting and not installing dsm

    the kernel and extra together is needed for 6.2.2, on 6.2.3 i'd suggest it but in most case the newer extra will work with the older 6.2.0 kernel in the loader

     

    the basic booting is working but in case of loader 1.03b you could still fail when the uefi boot device is used

     

    only way is to use a serial cable and a console (like putty) to see whats going on during boot

     

    So I have hit a bit of a brick wall, I tried to create a new bootable usb using both win32diskimager and rufus using your latest 6.2.3 extra.lmza and the zImage and rd.gz from the latest DSM 6.2.3. The issue I have is that if i leave uefi boot enable in the bios I get as far as the boot loader but it is not found in find.synology, if I disable uefi boot I just end up a blank screen without even seeing the boot loader screen. Do you have any ideas on anything else I can try or maybe point out where I could be going wrong?  

     

    The usb device name in the bios is KingstonDataTraveler G3 1.00 in case that helps

    not sure where the fancy name came from you where using but from its device id its just the usual realtek nic and the driver is in the package and often used

    whatever you tried, i guess the system was not booting at all or you used the wrong extra.lzma

    maybe just try with jun's original extra.lzma (loader 1.02b)

     

    when trying loader 1.03b keep in mind that one does only work in legacy bios mode (csm) not in uefi and it also need the legacy boot device selected from the list (no uefi in boot device name)

     
    ok thanks will give it another try, assume I can just use the standard 1.03b bootloader and not worry about your additional steps for copying the kernal from dsm or do I still need to so that? I was getting as far as the bootloader menu and was able to select the first option but it just wouldnt go on to show in find.synology, is there maybe a way to see whats going on once the boot loader is running or does the screen just stop refreshing like it says on the screen?

     

    thanks

    the board seems to be oem and msi has no info about it

    please do a "lspci -k" on a system where the nic so working so i can see is vendor and product id and the driver used

     

    Hi,

     

    Yes thats correct its an old oem build that I was able to repurpose for a bare metal install and it has been going strong for some 5 years or so. I have copied the output below, thats very much for taking a look.

    You have a simple RAID5 so the logical volume manager (lvm) is probably not being used and you won't have vg's.  You need to figure out what device your array is.  Try a "df" and see if you can match /dev/md... to your volume.  If that is inconclusive because the volume isn't mounting "cat /etc/fstab"

     

    See this thread for some options: https://xpenology.com/forum/topic/14337-volume-crash-after-4-months-of-stability/#comment-108013


    so it looks like its /dev/md2 but df didnt pick it up.

  8. So my system booted up this morning as per its schedule but immediately I was welcomed by a volume crash notification, the system has been stable for around 5-6 years with only 1 drive failure ever occurring last year. I have had a look around the forum but cant find any examples that help me troubleshoot my exact issue and I don't want to just blindly head off trying things as if possible I need to recover the data. I have included some screenshots below of storage manager along with a few commands I ran on the command line. 

     

    Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am drawing a bit of a blank having never encountered anything like this in the past.

  9. hi,

     

    u have a custom build running 3612xs 3202 and I am wondering if anybody else receives the following after the system has been up over 1 day:

     

    login_error_system_not_ready

     

    thanks

     

    matt

  10. Hi,

     

    I have been running with the 3202 build for a few weeks now but I am still receiving issues due to the following mentioned in the messages file.

     

    console: TCGETS: Input/output error^M

    console: TCGETS: Input/output error^M

     

    Does anybody else have these issues or know how to resolve them?

     

    Thanks

    Yes.

    Try to enable the COM-port in the motherboard BIOS. It's solved my problem.

     

    Thanks for that, unfortunate my motherboard doesn't have a COM port, I have the biostar A68i-350
