[ASRock N100DC-ITX (Intel N100 CPU) dsm not booting]

Problem solved by reinstalling BIOS, load defaults settings in BIOS, disable only secure boot, TPP, TPM

Used Arc loader and chose SA6400 model.

To be clear i know how DSM works and i understand the difference between bootloader and DSM. I have actually device Synology DS213j but it is old and i want to upgrade to better hardware. So i know how DSM works.

I tried ping from win10 and from openwrt on my router and the result is the same:

I was doing all that from USB stick, i even went to store and bought new usb 3.0 stick. Nothing helps.

Hi all,

I have this setup:

- motherboard: ASRock N100DC-ITX (built-in CPU Intel N100)

- RAM:  Lexar DDR4, 32 GB, 3200MHz, CL22

- NVMe: SSD Lexar NM620 256GB M.2 2280 PCI-E x4 Gen3

- 2 x 3,5inch SATA HDD 2TB

- 90 watt psu

 

System DSM is not booting, i think that computer freezing after bootloader is loaded. 

I have tried both "arpl" and "arc" projects (even the arc-a variant) in the latest versions. I have tried many syno models but the behavior is the same every time. After correctly configuring the bootloader and building it, the bootloader loads and after displaying the IP address to DSM, after a while displaying cmd line, the system hangs. It does not respond to the keyboard, it does not respond to ping at the indicated IP address (with or without a port). While loading the bootloader, it responds to pings. I have been waiting for a long time, even half an hour, but still nothing, the indicated address is not loading.
Does anyone have an idea what else can be done or tried?

Attached are both screens where the system stops and you cannot connect via IP to dsm.

Well I guess I can't help further. Thats all I did, nothing special.

I guess it has to be something with your loader.

Can You check the version of arpl-i18n loader? Also have this motherboard and can`t get DSM to work. Maybe You still have img file of Your bootloader?

Bios examined and disabled everything possible (e.g. com, lpt, etc... )
verified sata hotplug ok

 

I attach a photo of one of the thousand tests.
Regardless of the loader, LAN and sata controller I use, I always stop here.

The DSM kernel starts and then crashes... lan off and the only way is to turn everything off

 

Thanks for your help, I really appreciate it. Before writing I usually do extensive research and testing. (it's not the first one I've installed) but this is sending me to the madhouse!
