RobsterUK Posted October 7, 2020 Share #1 Posted October 7, 2020 Have been running DSM 5.2-5967 on old hardware for about 5 years. Just built new box to replace. Going to rsync all 5TB of data from old to new. Just want to make sure new is setup correctly prior to data migration. Hardware is Gigabyte B365m DS3H Intel i3 8100 8GB RAM 3 x 4TB Seagate Wolf drives Generated a serial from google search, inserted real MAC and added VID & PID to grub.cfg Have used Jun 1.04b with DSM_DS918+_25426.pat - Install went fine - so running 6.2.3 - 25426 Update 2 Want to ensure Emby will do hw transcoding before installing and migrating data. I have checked /dev/dri - this is missing. cat /usr/syno/etc/codec/activation.conf - reports missing file. Is this because there is nothing installed on the system yet? I have not installed anything at all. Or do I need to replace the extra.lzma/extra2.lzma for loader 1.04b ds918+ DSM 6.2.3 v0.13.3 from this thread?https://xpenology.com/forum/topic/28321-driver-extension-jun-103b104b-for-dsm623-for-918-3615xs-3617xs/#comments Just want to ensure correct drivers are loaded before doing anything else, but not sure what other checks I can do, without installing Emby or Video Station.

RobsterUK Posted October 8, 2020 Author Share #4 Posted October 8, 2020 I have copied the extra/extra2 v0.13.3 into the boot image. Had to use synology assistant to re-intialize the system, another reboot everything looks good. admin@NAS1:/$ cd /dev/dri admin@NAS1:/dev/dri$ ls card0 renderD128 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
