manfriday Posted April 25, 2014 Share #28 Posted April 25, 2014 When you booted, did you select gnoboot.me or let it boot from gnoboot-alpha ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newbi Posted April 25, 2014 Share #29 Posted April 25, 2014 When you booted, did you select gnoboot.me or let it boot from gnoboot-alpha ? Oh I see. I don't have anything to connect the N54L to, so this why I can't do it I will have to wait for gnoBoot for a fix. Thanks again for your help mate.

Diverge Posted April 25, 2014 Share #30 Posted April 25, 2014 It's a strange thing. The new 4482 version kills all data volumes' device node under /dev directory. Even if I manually add back the block device node using "mknod" command, they will be removed immediately. I guess that explains why I couldn't find my drives via shell. I tried to look through dmesg for anything regarding unmounting the volumes, drives, ect, but didn't see anything (but I'm kinda noob to this stuff). I guess they moved security into DSM itself, rather than just the kernel. Hopefully someone figures out a work around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demon_sl Posted April 25, 2014 Share #31 Posted April 25, 2014 DSM changes file attributes fstab chmod + x chmod 777 /etc/fstab .... do not help even though the file is there, but the ls-l /etc/fstab it says that there is no such file or directory, once I managed to run a script cat > /etc/fstab << "EOF" none /proc proc defaults 0 0 /dev/root / ext4 defaults 1 1 /dev/vg1/volume_1/volume1 ext4 usrjquota.usr,grpjquota.group,jqfmt=vfsv0,synoacl 0 0 ...... the last lines of your original file to update (I have only one third line as one partition (HDD), your should be different) Now after restarting the script does not work ... that it does not allow him to work do not worry! all your data remain on the disk!

yuko4632 Posted April 25, 2014 Share #32 Posted April 25, 2014 Can not be upgraded, only a new installation, there would be an error. The new security mechanism will automatically uninstall all disks. Abnormality detected on DiskStation. All volumes have been unmounted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F5BJR Posted April 26, 2014 Share #33 Posted April 26, 2014 * Because upgrade cause disks not see solution is to downgrade Run Gnoboot.me ... and tag 4452 upgrade ... With Windows Synology Assistant reinstall old version 4452.pat Your server run after downgrade as before no problems PC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasonhan Posted April 26, 2014 Share #34 Posted April 26, 2014 i used ultraedit I appreciate the response, assuming you were responding to me, but you didn't actually answer my question. As I stated, I know how to perform the action of editing the files, I just don't know where they are located or how to get to them. You should mount the gnoboot volume to the system, then use vi command to edit the menu_me.lst file. mkdir /gnoboot mount /dev/gnoboot1 /gnoboot cd /gnoboot/boot/grub ls Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasonhan Posted April 26, 2014 Share #35 Posted April 26, 2014 Thanks for the great work. Just FYI: I tried upgrading my system from 4458 to 4482 using jasonhan's guide. It keeped my Volume, shares and users, but unmounted all disks, the wired thing was that I could still write to the shares. The volume and data was there, but in DSM GUI, there was no disks, wired. I then went back to 4458 update 2, no problem. Hopefully gnoboot can figure it out. If you don't login WebUI, it will not trigger the unmount action. So everything looks fine.

Gem Posted April 26, 2014 Share #36 Posted April 26, 2014 Sad that no auditing support in the kernel. Static compiled auditd does not work only for this reason. It would be nice to catch checking code. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sebj Posted April 26, 2014 Share #37 Posted April 26, 2014 sebj, you're off topic my friend Indeed, sorry, probably dislexic of me, I read 4458, not 4482 That being said, if this is really a security mesure, gotta hand it to them for the time being. Knocking out storage volumes is the most nullifying thing you can do to a NAS... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there any way to figure out which process, app, is causing it at login? Maybe we can just replace it with previous build.. but I doubt it would be that easy.

yaqushi Posted April 28, 2014 Share #39 Posted April 28, 2014 so completely new installation with gnoboot 10.5 and 4482 does work? Its a bit of work to backup the data and fill the nas afterwards, but can be done if the above is a workaround... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djelusion Posted April 28, 2014 Share #41 Posted April 28, 2014 FUCK SYnology!. damnit I dont have a screen to see what goes on with my gnoboot.. i just boot it from usb and thats it.. i dont have the luxury of a vga monitor.. So i cant see anything going on and if its going to unmount my shit then fuck this update. right when i thought everything was ok.. its not.. bastard updates and risks.

Trexx Posted April 28, 2014 Share #42 Posted April 28, 2014 There is a simple solution. BUY an actual Synology NAS. Absent of that, be thankful for the hard work that people like gnoBoot and Trantor put in to bring the synology platform to the rest of us. And yes there may be some speed bumps along the way, but lets get real... Synology owes us NOTHING as we haven't supported them through purchasing their product. Would I like the newest/latest/greatest update - sure.. but i don't feel ENTITLED to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Synology doesn't owe you anything & no one is forcing you to update. Just be glad that the previous version is working thanks to Gnoboot & Trantor.

It takes a lot less work to actually read the thread I did read the whole thread, no one posted anything on trying this as a fresh install. Everyone is trying to upgrade from 4452 version. But ya, I guess it was worth it to post a comment to read the thread. Cause we don't ask questions here, we are only reading... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssiril Posted April 28, 2014 Share #45 Posted April 28, 2014 Hi there, I've tried of a fresh new install and this is the same problem. I think that it comes from sata/sas/ide drivers included in gnoboot that does not show hardware as the 4482 need them to be. /dev/ does not have any "sd" or "hd" device, this could mean that the post init script that does build hard disks does not communicate correctly with the gnoboot kernel.

What does Synology have to do with the recent CVE's they fixed in 4482? They rely on several open source packages like SMB, curl, etc that they don't even work on. Be thankful they incorporate the fixes so quickly. I wouldn't lump them in with microsoft that has a web browser they haven't fixed. The CVE's are: Fixed a security issue of Windows File Service to prevent remote attackers from obtaining access. (CVE-2013-4496) Fixed several security issues related to cURL. (CVE-2014-0139, CVE-2014-0015, CVE-2013-6422) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
