Kochen Posted February 8, 2020 Share #1 Posted February 8, 2020 Hi guys, So, i've tried to get a new Xpenology up and running, on some hardware that was given to me. About 7 months ago a colleague, helped me get a Xpenology up and running, on some old hardware from our workplace. We are talking Intel Celeron D in a old HP Compaq dc7600. I can't really remember the process, but i think he already had made a bootloader, and downloaded the DSM he knew worked. And it does work, and it's been running almost nonstop since we made it. But now, i got a much newer mediacenter pc from another colleague, which i would like to make into a much stronger NAS. The new pc consists of a ASRock H77 Pro4-M, 8gb of RAM and a 60gb Kingston SSD(which will be upgraded, when the DSM is running) I use a Kingston Datatraveler 3.0 16gb USB stick. I've tried almost all the bootloaders, except 1.04b, because my CPU is too old for that. 1.02b, 1.03b in 3615, 3617 and 916. So far, the 1.02b 3615 is the only one, where i was actually able to get a IP-address. But after some reboots, totalt formats and much frustration, i cannot get it to work. I use the extra driver package, because of the NIC(Realtek RTL8111E ). I've gotten so far as installing the DSM(23824) but after it restarted i did not get a IP-address. So, what am i doing wrong? And what can ido? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IG-88 Posted February 8, 2020 Share #2 Posted February 8, 2020 you left out you cpu but your board only support 2nd and 3rd gen intel cpu, loader 918+ 1.04b needs a 4th gen cpu as min. so thats not going to work for you (same for 916+) id suggest reading this https://xpenology.com/forum/topic/13333-tutorialreference-6x-loaders-and-platforms/ also the faq section and the tutorial when "practicing" installing you might keep to the 1st 6.2 version if you want to go to 6.2.2 it needs more preparations as it needs different drivers, so you need to copy additional files to the loader https://xpenology.com/forum/topic/21663-driver-extension-jun-103b104b-for-dsm622-for-3615xs-3617xs-918/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been using the tutorial and faq section. Hence the "except 1.04b". I also use the extra driver pack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
