Thank you so much, I am logged in and fully operational. I will see if I can get my hand on some older RAM I did a clean out not too long ago on anything older than DDR3/4. Might be something on marketplace I can get my hands on to test. Now to try test this on an even older Netgear RND4000 NV2+ 🤣

well well well... using the above recommendations I am presented with this now Thank you so much for your assistance. From here I guess I have 2 questions/realisations: 1. If i want to run the default modern loaders I will need at least 4gb RAM? 2. If and when I upgrade the RAM and test that I can use the default modern loaders, given my NAS is a 5-Bay, should I be opting for a model with 5 bays by default EG, DS1019+ or DS1520+

pulled from here: Modders Thecus N5550

Ok so I have gone with the suggestion above to use DS3622xs+ and all installed correctly, upon first boot I receive "ERROR Could not get IP" This is something new for me as all previous seemed to get the IP after the build, I can only assume this might be because of selecting this new version. I am just about to boot back into your loader and see if there is an option to inject the network drivers, wondering if that is the issue in this new build. see screenshot

I only copied what an earlier person used so i have no real commitment to any model. I will try this one now Thank you so much for your continual support. NIC appears to be e1000e

thanks for your reply. see screenshot appears that it is ping-able til the point the kernel loads.

ok...finally found that TCRP and your TCRP are diff lol. Got it installed and booted i see the device on my network through my unifi gateway and hasnt dropped off like it did with the manual versions. However I cannot load into the DSM through its URL or URL+port5000. Here is a screenshot of what the NAS shows, note i have 2GB RAM, would this be my issue now? Or do you see something else out of the ord?

thank you, and I hope I did not come off ungrateful in anyway just a little confused I will take a look at those links, I had pulled your latest IMG file but was not aware of the automation scripts. When you say M SHELL for TCRP a lot of this is going over my head so i will do my best not to have to ask you many questions lol

Hi, sorry to jump in here randomly. I’m quite noob at this but have been trying to follow the guide from page 1. I have a Thecus N5550 which from older tutorials I’ve seen utilise DS3615xs I feel I’ve done all the steps as above, the ones that don’t work for me are firstly from step 6 I receive the message “Error : Platform not found : rploader.sh” tc@box:~$ ./rploader.sh ext broadwellnk-7.0.1-42218 add https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pocopico/rp-ext/master/r8101/rpext-index.json tc@box:~$ ./rploader.sh ext broadwellnk-7.0.1-42218 add https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pocopico/rp-ext/master/r8125/rpext-index.json tc@box:~$ ./rploader.sh ext broadwellnk-7.0.1-42218 add https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pocopico/rp-ext/master/r8152/rpext-index.json tc@box:~$ ./rploader.sh ext broadwellnk-7.0.1-42218 add https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pocopico/rp-ext/master/r8168/rpext-index.json tc@box:~$ ./rploader.sh ext broadwellnk-7.0.1-42218 add https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pocopico/rp-ext/master/r8169/rpext-index.json tc@box:~$ ./rploader.sh ext broadwellnk-7.0.1-42218 add https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pocopico/rp-ext/master/igp/rpext-index.json tc@box:~$ ./rploader.sh ext broadwellnk-7.0.1-42218 add https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pocopico/rp-ext/master/e1000/rpext-index.json tc@box:~$ ./rploader.sh ext broadwellnk-7.0.1-42218 add https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pocopico/rp-ext/master/e1000e/rpext-index.json tc@box:~$ ./rploader.sh ext broadwellnk-7.0.1-42218 add https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pocopico/rp-ext/master/mpt3sas/rpext-index.json and then from step 8 [DS3615xs] ./rploader.sh update now ./rploader.sh fullupgrade now ./rploader.sh serialgen DS3615xs ./rploader.sh identifyusb now ./rploader.sh satamap now ./rploader.sh build bromolow-7.0.1-42218 ./rploader.sh clean now ./rploader.sh build bromolow-7.1.0-42661 ./rploader.sh clean now; rm -rf /mnt/sdb3/auxfiles; rm -rf /home/tc/custom-module; ./rploader.sh backup now; </quote> I guess after running all steps except these that failed, I get presented with the boot menu and boot into “RedPill DS3615xs 7.1.1-42962 (USB, Verbose)”, however it gets stuck at the message: Loading Linux… Loading initramfs… Starting kernel with USB boot _ im pretty lost right now I feel so close yet so far.
