I was looking for a similar solution as the BIOS is linked to the CPU or motherboard temperature. I too did what @jons did and installed Entware and lm-sensors. Some of the limitations of the lm-sensors distributed via opkg is that it does not include the pwmconfig and fancontrol scripts as mentioend by jons, these can however be copied over from the github repo here. https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lm-sensors/lm-sensors/master/prog/pwm/pwmconfig https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lm-sensors/lm-sensors/master/prog/pwm/fancontrol However the problem remains that lm-sensors fancontrol does not use the HDD temperature to control the fanspeed. To do that I am using the hddfancontrol app from this repo. (https://github.com/desbma/hddfancontrol). This has an option to use smartctl which is included with DSM. Still setting this up, shall report progress... This can be useful to others running bare metal and wanting speed control of the fan based on disk rather than CPU or MB temperature.

Thanks Peter, am building a DS920+, assume that works for the DT based models as well. Will give it a try and report.

Hi @pocopicoare the extensions built for 7.1.1.42962 ? I am trying to add the hwmon and nct6775 extension.

Hi IG-88 did you update this for DSM 7.1.1 or any instructions to add it to RP via TCRP build process ?

I recall that there was a need for 2 serial ports during the ThorGroup days (I lost my login ID when the forum transitioned to emails hence the new one !). ttyS0 was used as console and ttyS1 is used to communicate with the speaker/fans/buttons.. which was supposed to be emulated in the kernel.. That could be the pointer to why the kernel panics. Not sure how this works in non DT builds

It appears to happen to only device tree based RP. The board has a single COM port but the user_config.json has 2 ports. Is this mandatory ? the ttyS1 points to a port that does not exist on the hardware syno_ttyS1=serial,0x2f8 syno_ttyS0=serial,0x3f8

Since I cannot technically "contact" the OEM, any tips on debugging would be helpful. The board does have a serial port, can check if it is enabled in the BIOS..

Hi, I have installed TCRp with friend (tinycore-redpill.v0.9.4.0-1.m-shell) on baremetal J-4205 ITX. I am seeing Dm esg being flooded with this message ( synobios get empty ttyS current). Adding a screenshot to show how frequently it happens. Any idea what is causing it ?

Am facing a build issue with the ds920 platform, the loader detects my HDDs but is unable to create the dtb file correctly.

Got this working after a few trials. It seems the USB disk to boot from is hard coded in GRUB as hd0, msdosx where x is the Tinycore or the Synology boot partition built by redpill-load. Depending on your motherboard and other USB disks attached you may get lucky and your USB stick will show up as hd0. If it doesnt you have 2 options 1. Keep changing the order of where you plug in your devices into USB so that the USB stick is identified as hd0. 2. edit grub.cfg to match the hd number you have. This is easy to find out by jumping into the grub shell at the boot menu by hitting 'c' and type ls at the prompt. This should show you all the disks and the partition idetifiers as per grub. Hope that helps.

I use a J4105 ASRock board which supports UEFI only. This worked well with Jun's loader earlier..

Hi, I have built the image and it migrated my disk to DSM 7,1. I have a backup HDD connected to my "NAS" for local backups. On booting however the boot fails. It shows the error : Even booting the Tinyloader fails as follows : If i reboot with the HDD disconnected it works fine, Is there a way to enable RP with a USB HDD connected ?

@ThorGroup My understanding is that for ESXi the vmdk is split into 2 files the raw data (Diskname-flat.vmdk) and the raw disk descriptor (Diskname.vmdk), whereas other products like VMWare Workstation have the descriptor followed by the disk data in a single vmdk file.. hope that helps.
