    XPEnology DSM 5.0-4493 Discussion / Bootloaders

    in Readers News & Rumours

    Posted

    So there's no need to add the MAC address in the boot line?

    no need in my case, my gut feeling is that bootloader can grab the physical Mac during the boot, and then official pat installation package can config DSM accordingly. It may be required in the previous version of boot tools.

    Any thought for the hibernation. so frustrated and almost give up. may try Windows Storage Server 2012.

    You need to change the MAC address in order for WOL to work and the SN if you have more than one install of XPEnology in your network (not sure about the SN).

     

    Did you try disconnecting the eSATA and then check if hibernation is working?

     

    WOL works perfectly either LAN or WAN without adding MAC. however the hibernation still does not work even I remove the eSATA drive and leave only 1 main HDD. still could not see any log like "wake from hibernation"

    still struggling with the hibernation issue.

     

    check the scemd.log and see lots of entries about eSATA port check during the testing timeframe

     

    Jul 3 21:50:45 DiskStation scemd: modules/disk_check.c:539 The machine eSATA ports exceed defined value(MAX_CDISK_SATA)

    Jul 3 21:51:17 DiskStation scemd: modules/disk_check.c:539 The machine eSATA ports exceed defined value(MAX_CDISK_SATA)

    Jul 3 21:51:49 DiskStation scemd: modules/disk_check.c:539 The machine eSATA ports exceed defined value(MAX_CDISK_SATA)

    Jul 3 21:52:21 DiskStation scemd: modules/disk_check.c:539 The machine eSATA ports exceed defined value(MAX_CDISK_SATA)

     

    would this be the problem that stop the hibernation?

     

    Where I can make a change to MAX_CDISK_SATA?

     

    I have done the configure change to mount esata port by editing /etc.defaults/synoinfo.conf

    esataportcfg="0x0ffe"

    internalportcfg="0x001"

     

    folks, give a hand please.

    I installed 4493 and upgraded to update2 without any problem. just did within DSM.

    WOL also works well.

     

    May I ask why we need to change MAC and SN, is any other propose for this change.

     

    I could not have the hibernation work on my N54L. Looking forward to suggestion/instruction?

    Hibernation Issue with N54L + DSM5.0 Update2 + Nanoboot

    Just installed DSM5.0 on my N54L via Nano boot x64 iso.

    I have the problem with the hibernation.

     

    What I did include:

    1> BIOS mod with O41100113

    2> Enable eSATA for port 2-6, only port 1 set to SATA

    3> WOL works well after adding the shutdown script.

     

    However, the hibernation does not work at all.

     

    After enable the debugging tools, I saw a number of log entry after disconnect LAN.

    Any thoughts/advice? thanks a lot.

    [SOLVED] Possible downgrade DSM 5.0

    in Archives

    Posted

    Those users reporting hibernation is working might be using Marvell controllers that is fully supported by the vendor.

     

    Hibernation works for me with DSM 5 on an HP N54L if that helps.

    Hi, may I ask what's the boot you are using? gno or nano?

     

    I just installed DSM5 on N54L via Nanoboot x64 iso

     

    I upgraded to UPDATE2 and WOL works fine, but not for hibernation. could not work out why

    have you guys check the N54L warranty?

    in Archives

    Posted

    I bought my toy N54L two weeks ago and just started to play with it.

     

    the first thing i did is to register my HP passport, however, once i put my S/N there, HP shows totally different product information.

     

    it says "HP ProLiant N36L 1P 1GB-U Int SATA Cold Plug SATA 160GB 200W PS MicroServer" and even links to a different product number (not what shows on the label of my server".

     

    further, the warranty expires by November, only 5 months left.

     

    Anyone experience this before? is it a refurbish product?

    Ok please can someone help. I noticed something strange. When the power fails and my ups kicks in my system does not shut down.

    is this normal and if so how do I enable it to shutdown when running on ups... ?

     

    This happens on all 3 my microservers 2 on different ups'es

     

    Please help as power in my area is not great...

     

    good luck, hope someone can help you out. My N54L still sits at the corner and to be installed.

    If you install XPEnology, you boot from the USB bootloader. Then you install DSM, which will install on all 6 disks, RAID or SHR.

    4 disks are normal connected through drive bays. The two extra disks are via eSATA. In total 6. NFS is a protocol which is support in XPEnology.

     

    The DSM OS does not work on USB. USB is only boot device. Sleep mode works fine with USB stick in the system.

     

    Data migration from the current disk is not possible. DSM will format your drives. Make a backup first.

    BIOS mod and install instructions see http://www.xpenology.nl.

    Thanks a lot, Poechi

     

    If I set all SATA to eSATA via modifying /etc.deafults/synoinfo.conf, also I intend to attached these HDD after I have DSM installed. Would it be possible to install DSM without any SATA disk attached?

    However, I have no place to put OS. I plan to install OS into a USB from which to boot.

    DSM doesn't use separate drive. It mirrors small system partition to all permanently connected (initialized) drives. USB is needed for synoboot, initial boot-loader.

    emm, it sounds a trouble for me. I am trying to avoid data migration. Can I set all SATA ports to eSATA with NFS supported and then use a USB as DSM OS? Would it have an issue for disk sleep mode?

     

    Cheers

    1- 6 drives is possible, basically, you need to...

     

    - Run an eSATA to SATA cable from the back of the box, through a blanking plate and into the top drive bay.

    - Get a molex to dual SATA power cable.

    - Find some way of mounting two drives (I used one of these: http://www.frozencpu.com/products/15856 ... 0-AKS.html)

    - Upgrade the BIOS to one of the hacked versions to enable the eSATA/ODD to run at full speed (emulates IDE otherwise).

     

    2 - For DSM, you'll have to format the drives.

    3 - There's plenty of info on the net about this already.

    4 - See the nanoboot instructions on the forum.

     

    BTW, i'm not running DSM on my N36L yet - the above setup was for WHS2011. I plan on building a new server for DSM, migrating the data to it and then rebuilding the N36L with DSM as well.

     

    thanks a lot

    New to this forum. Hello everyone. :grin:

    I just bought my N54L and am about to build as NAS with XPEnology.

     

    I have 6 HDD old SATA disks and would like to put all into the box. After some research, it seems achievable via converting ODD to 2x3.5' and external eSATA to SATA. However, I have no place to put OS. I plan to install OS into a USB from which to boot.

     

    I have some junior question to ask? :?:

    1> Does my plan sounds all right?

    2> Is it able to connect my existing 6 HDD into DSM 5.0 without formatting, i just want to avoid data migration unless it is really really necessary.

    3> Any guide or instruction for BIOS hack as I have no idea how to and it is required to upgrade ODD to SATA?

    4> How to create a boot USB with DSM5.0 latest 4493?

     

    thanks a lot.
