Would anyone be able to point me in the right direction? Hi, Once booted and see this "Something went wrong", could you telnet to this IP with user root and check what are the listed disks with fdisk -l |grep sd ?

You can add the early-telnet extension from my repo though. You can still try to set SataPortMap=1 .

Well I tried and managed to break the battery holder off the surface mount board! I tried soldering it back but the solder pad is gone, it came off with the holder. Easy to fix, hotglue for battery support, wire to replace broken trace. It's my hobby fix electronics things 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway its a different story. Its just a left over from an effort to make a rasberry multitool for redpill. The plan was to have raspberry providing USB serial console, USB bootdisk, Ethernet to DSM. It was an overkill but its very promising once we figure out how to handle the PM messages coming from redpill (Buzzer control, led output etc) Edited January 12, 2022 by pocopico 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djvas335 Posted January 12, 2022 Share #157 Posted January 12, 2022 Easy way to do an inplace upgrade, did it on 2 N54L and one Microserver Gen8 for ds3615xs Login via SSH as admin then change to root sudo dd if=tinycoreimage.img of=/dev/synoboot bs=1M check via fdisk if bootable flag is set on synoboot1, if not set it. Reboot and find the nas on your dhcp server, then login via ssh to tinycore and run below commands ./rploader.sh update now ./rploader.sh identifyusb now ./rploader.sh serialgen DS3615xs now ./rploader.sh satamap now ./rploader.sh build bromolow-7.0.1-42218 And reboot the server, use synology assistant to locate the server and install the pat 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try to telnet and run an fdisk -l to see if you have synoboot listed. If not you have either selected SATA on boot or your USB vid/pid is wrong.

chickey Posted January 12, 2022 Share #160 Posted January 12, 2022 I'm up and working now which is cool!!! Manually adding the extension failed as i get the screenshot. But i didn't need it in the end as you were correct i hadn't set the vid/pid, sorry been changing that many things and rebooting i missed it this time. I also get an error complaining at line 1061 when doing a ./rploader.sh listmods now but i guess that is down to my custom config file so shall investigate. I have a nvme on a pcie adaptor so will see about getting that working next also, for now though i'm super happy. thanks for the help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tester Posted January 12, 2022 Share #161 Posted January 12, 2022 (edited) I now succeded with three things: got a running DSM 7 VM in VMware Player 16 (Intel e1000e and disks as SATA, tc-boot-vmdk and additional 16GB Disk) exported it and imported this one on ESXi 6.7 U3 on HP Gen 8 Micro, works (with steps below) Boot Tiny Core 4.4 bare metal on HP Gen8 Micro Export was done with OVF Tool v4.41: "C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware OVF Tool\ovftool.exe" --allowExtraConfig --exportFlags=mac,uuid,extraconfig "x:\vms\tc\tc.vmx" "x:\export\tc.ovf" And important add an extra advanced config for the VM because it exports the used MAC as static but uses the reserved range for VMware if used a generated one (should have set a custom one before manually): "ethernet0.CheckMACAddress" = "FALSE" What fails for me up to now: using the given VMDK is not directly possible, becausw wrong format, convertion on ESXi with vmkfstools -i old.vmdk new.vmdk -d thin seems to destroy some stuff => ovftool seems to work better here Build with rploader inside the VM on ESXi 6.7U3 on HP Gen 8 Micro => after reboot Grub is destroyed, error something with arch / magic ELF ... Has anybode been successful with building it in Tiny Core on ESXi 6.7? Any hints? Build with rploader on Bare Metal HP Gen8 Micro => build succeeds, but I think it fails to boot because I read somewhere that newer DSM doesn't work with the old NICs, cannot find it currently ... do I need to specify an extra module manually? 0000:03:00.0 14e4:165f 103c:2133 11/ /0x33 A V ntg3 vmnic0 0000:03:00.1 14e4:165f 103c:2133 7/ /0x34 B V ntg3 vmnic1 Name PCI Device Driver Admin Status Link Status Speed Duplex MAC Address MTU Description ------ ------------ ------ ------------ ----------- ----- ------ ----------------- ---- ------------------------------------------------------- vmnic0 0000:03:00.0 ntg3 Up Up 1000 Full 1c:98:ec:xx:xx:xx 1500 Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5720 Gigabit Ethernet vmnic1 0000:03:00.1 ntg3 Up Up 100 Full 1c:98:ec:xx:xx:xx 1500 Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5720 Gigabit Ethernet Build in Virtual Box OK, but not able to find it after reboot Edited January 12, 2022 by tester Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jarugut Posted January 12, 2022 Share #162 Posted January 12, 2022 First of all great job Pocopico, the tinycore works perfectly to be able to generate the new boot loader option. I've a QNAP working with Apollake DSM 7.0 perfectly with previous redpill loader. Currently I'm trying to use your new bootloader with DSM 6.2.4 Apollake, the first installation works fine and the nas run perfectly. The problem comes when I tried to apply the Update 3 of version 6.2.4, the system reboot normally the nas after the installation but in the boot always the nas enter in migration mode in bucle, repair, boot migration mode, ... Do you have some information about it? I've tried to find some new configuration for the global_config.json without luck, at the end the version is the same 6.2.4-25556 Thank you for your help.

So you are install succesfully 6.2.4 using tinycore redpill and then you update to U3 and you end up in migration mode right ? Well if i'm not mistaken after the update you will need to recreate the image from scratch. And that is because, updates would overwrite parts of the loader rendering it unusable. Can you try to update and then recreate the image and try to boot to see how that goes ? If you have already done so, make sure you keep the same Serial number and mac address otherwise DSM would think you've mograted the disks to another synology system.

Because, when I first tried to create the loader using the Virtio controller it did not work. I shut down the VM, changed the controller to SATA and went back to TinyCore to re-create the loader but again I could not install the DSM (no disks found). When I deleted the image and began from scratch by setting the controller SATA from the beginning and then attempt to create the loader it did work. Always we have to start from scratch?
