5.2 Bootloader Hanging on HP N40L


Gaston

Recommended Posts

Currently running 5.1-5055 on an HP N40L with the xpenology boot loader imaged onto a flash drive. Have downloaded the 5.2-5565.1 and 5.2-5565.2 bootloaders multiple times and flashed multiple times. Both, after selecting Install/Upgrade, load the kernel, state .... OK and then I just get a blank screen. I see no disk activity and nothing responds through network. I've seen quite a few posts about 5.2 and the network issue, yet I cannot even get to that point. Any thoughts on this? Thanks!

Have you trid to boot noamaly on the 5.2 image, not the install/upgrade ?

=> Yes but no detection by synology assistant, and after few minute web acces on port 5000 is ok but many services are disable

 

Are you on org bios or hacked bios ?

=> hacked BIOS but i verified that this night

i didente have much probs with my N36L, but have a coouple of questions

Hacked BIOS for me. I have tried to just boot into the default kernel and I get the same hang. I image the flash drive back to xpenoboot 5.1 and it loads immediately into the kernel with the xpenoboot logo.

 

Maybe the xpenoboot guys have a way of logging the boot process?

Have you tried another USB stick?

Have you tried disconnecting keyboard and/or mouse - if connected?

Do you have any other add-ons in your N40L? Networkcard, graphic card, SATA controllers and so on?

Do you have any other devices connected to any USB port?
