Difference between the different loaders


Recommended Posts

  • 2 months later...

Compatibility between loader of the DSM software version and unit (Synology hardware).

 

But how did you get a bootable usb stick with the bootloader for the DSM6.2? I can not create one with Rufus, Etcher or dd command on Linux, so I am stuck with 6.1

That is exactly what I did with no success at all :-(

 

Generated MAC address, serial number, changed vid and pid, but all of this shouldn't have any influence of booting at the first place, for later installation purpose, I think it is more important.

Have you looked at this?

 

You might have to change a few things in your BIOS depending on the hardware you use.

I haven't had much luck with generated serials, I would suggest you try getting it working with only changing the VID/PID until it boots.  If my memory serves me right, the serial/mac is only important, if you need to use hardware decoding.
