XPEnoboot Install - Blank Screen

When it shows you the booting kernel screen, did you have a blinking cursor or anything else ?

 

Did you check if synology assistant detect your system ?

 

The cursor is blinking (and the screen flips from black to green) but nothing is found in Synology assistant.

 

I ran debug as well and it stops at:

[     5.354485] system 00:06: [mem 0xfed12010-0xfed1201f] has been reserved

The debug process seems to sop at that point.

Mine boots with NoModeEmu and i could uppgrade it to 5.2 but after that i get a completly white webpage and thats it...

 

Edit: Just Wiped it and did a fresh install. Now runing DSM 5.2-5592 Update 4 :smile:

 

Thanks Trantor

 

Did yours boot to the DiskStation login prompt (it went past booting to kernel)?

 

Thanks.

Just an edit on my debug run.

 

The code runs with a black screen. Then it flips to green and stops at the following (adding a few more lines with the first being ".. could not be reserved")

[     5.348859] system 00:06: [mem 0xfed1c000-0xfed3ffff] could not be reserved
[     5.349002] system 00:06: [mem 0xfed45000-0xfed8bfff] has been reserved
[     5.349304] system 00:06: [mem 0xff000000-0xffffffff] has been reserved
[     5.349527] system 00:06: [mem 0xfee00000-0xfeefffff] has been reserved
[     5.349741] system 00:06: [mem 0xfed12000-0xfed1200f] has been reserved
[     5.354485] system 00:06: [mem 0xfed12010-0xfed1201f] has been reserved

I just disabled a bunch of stuff in BIOS so now with Debug I get to the below before stopping:

 

.........pci ........ can't assign to (size 0x20)

.........pci ........ trying firmware assignment [io 0x0020-0x003f]

 

So something is causing it to stop but I'm not sure what yet.

After I aplied the NoModeEmu - Yes. It gets to the login prompt without any problem.

Before the NoModeEMu it hanged at loading /zImage ...

I should add that this is on a zotac board. Haven't tested the Gigabyte one but I can do that rather Quickly.

Just did some additional test on my asus a8n-e with these graphic cards : Quadro FX, 8600GT, 9800GT, HD5450.

All cards boot ok up to the login prompt without doing anything.

 

I don't think it's something about the graphic cards but maybe it's related to gigabytes mainboard.

Hey,

 

I got an A8n-Sli Deluxe and nanoboot was working perfectly, but no way to boot with XPEenoboot.

I tried the "nomodset" parameter with just a few more lines at boot and a green screen.

 

I removed my brand new *crappy* MSI nvidia GEFORCE GT610 and tried with my old Nvidia 8800 GTS.

XPEnoboot is now working flawlessly. Migration 5.0 to 5.2 in progress :grin:

 

cheers
