Thank you for response 

 

yes it is a laptop. I checked the bios for some infos but there is no sata number or sata infos. I decide to build the usb again but changed  "SataPortMap": "6", to  "SataPortMap": "1", and it works now. 1 internal hdd and 2 usb hdd recognized.

I would like to add another internal 2.5 hdd with hdd enclosure instead of cdrom drive but xpenology doesn't see that. 

I decide to build the another usb. changed  "SataPortMap": "1", to  "SataPortMap": "2", and find.mysynology couldn't find the nas.

 

I wonder is there any way to use 2 internal hdd on my system because I used to use xpenology 6.

 

Thank you for your helps

 

If its an IDE CDROM which i think that is, you will not be able to add a disk connected to IDE. You need SATA AHCI devices.

Hi,

 

Can somebody help me with the SATAPORTMAP settings?

(Bare Metal installation)

 

This is what Tinycore is saying

    "SataPortMap": "64",
    "DiskIdxMap": "0004"

 

DSM is found but then its saying sata ports disabled.....

 

If I fill this in the grub.cfg file

SataPortMap=1 

DiskIdxMap=0C

Then I can install DSM but not all of the sata ports are working, only the sata ports on the PCIE card are working but not the sata ports on the motherboard.

 

In my BIOS I only see 3 SATA ports and 1 eSata port.

So something is wrong with my Sata settings.

 

Thanks

Hi all,

Thanks to Pocopico and RedPill team, I can run DSM 7 on my setup (B75N and CPU i3-3225) from DSM 6 with jun's loader 1.03b.

 

- Backup Data

- Check Bios (Legacy Mode)

- Check SATA drives respect the order of the SATA ports on the motherboard (I had some trouble with that on the first times)

- Prepare USB tinycore then following guide (boot, terminal commands, build, ...)

- NAS found, can be migrate and works like a charm (i'm not using docker)

 

Many thanks to the community !!

Hello @pocopico@Aigor,

 

My server is microserver Gen8. I followed this https://xpenology.club/install-dsm-7-on-baremetal-or-vm/ tutorial tried again and again. But after reboot. The Server stuck at this screen. And never fetch IP from my DHCP Server. Please help!

I also fetched the console output with iLO VSP

console.log

Try 4. If that doesn't work, try 3. Sometimes esata will disable an internal port.

Hi Thanks for the info.

 

I did some further testing.

This is working after a sucessfull installation

    "SataPortMap": "34",
    "DiskIdxMap": "00"

 

But if I want to install it on a new disk with these settings, same message.

Really strange.

 

Where do I have to place 4 or 3?

 

Thanks!

Hello @ all

 

I`ve got the same problem like cospotato. I`m running the tinycore/redpill 0.4.6 version with an amd x570 board and an atlantic 10gb card and an onboard intel 221 1gb nic. I`ve tried it in uefi and bios mode, but i can`t get it to work. it seems, it doesn`t get an ip adress in any way with the atlantic or the intel nic. Please help!

 

Greetings Dominik

I have same hardware and i was able to update from 6.2.3 to 7.01 
how loader has been built? 
if you used tinycore, you have to add TG3 extension on building and you have to use DS3622xs+ hardware 
Try install without ANY other network card than internals 

Gen8 doesn't have UEFI bios so can't boot UEFI loader

Hi @Aigor

 

Thank you for your answer. To be clear, i don`t use an HP microserver, i`m using an amd mainboard, an asrock x570 phantom gaming 4. I used the DS3622xs+ variant with uefi and bios. I included also the TG3, e1000, e1000e and i40e driver. Unfortunately, this didn`t help me. It seems, that i`m still not getting any dhcp adress... It still stucks at "starting kernel with usb boot" and i`m not able to find the ds over find.synology.com and the synology assistant. I tried it with the buildin nic (intel i211at) and removed the atlantic nic, but no success. Any other suggestions..? From anyone..?

 

Greetings Dominik

I found the problem. I have a dual-port 10G NIC installed.I try to remove it before booting. Then the server fetched the IP.

New problem. After I migrate and finish install DSM. Cannot reach the network again (without 10G NIC installed).

 

Note: I create LACP port bond before in 6.2.3

 

Then i force poweroff the server. The server fall into restart loop.

 

I rebuild the loader, remove the 10G NIC, boot. This time i wait the Disk led stop flash, force power off again. Install the 10G NIC. (Because i configured static ip on the 10G NIC card) After boot, the 10G NIC port led flashing. But i cannot reach the server with static ip configured before either.

 

I force power off again. This time i boot into tinycore. Rebuild loader with 10G NIC again, reboot. Now the 10G NIC not flash.

Update:

 

I successfully access the DSM! The problem i was met is the 10G NIC IP has filled in the on-board 1G NIC. I captured package on that port found this.

 

Now the problem is:

 

If i install the 10G NIC card. Although rebuild loader in tinycore. But the system fall into restart loop.

 

Note: My 10G NIC cart is Intel 82599

I have the problem with: 

 

It's an HP Elitebook 840 G2 with 2 SSDs.

 

We've detected errors on the hard drives (1, 3), and the SATA ports have also been disabled. Please shut down your DS918+ to replace or remove the hard drives and try again.  I tried the suggested DiskIdxMap=0000 and SataMap=0004 or something like that but didn't work. 

 

I tried many configs but nothing works

 

Tried: DiskIdxMap=00 SataPortMap=4  -> We have detected errors on the hard drives 1,3,4

Tried: DiskIdxMap=00 SataPortMap=3  -> We have detected errors on the hard drives 1,3

Tried: DiskIdxMap=00 SataPortMap=2 -> We have detected errors on the hard drives 1

Tried: DiskIdxMap=00 SataPortMap=1 -> No drives detected

Tried: DiskIdxMap=00 SataPortMap=0 -> not loading/no network

 

Tried: DiskIdxMap=00 SataPortMap=1 SasIdxMap=0 -> No drives detected

Tried: DiskIdxMap=00 SataPortMap=2 SasIdxMap=0 -> We have detected errors on the hard drives 1

 

Tried: DiskIdxMap=01 SataPortMap=1 -> No drives detected

Tried: DiskIdxMap=01 SataPortMap=2 -> We have detected errors on the hard drives 2

as I mentioned before I had some sata port problems.

I set sataportmap 1 and nas sees only one internal hdd not anymore.

 

I found th chipset number on motherboard using a program called speccy. I took the chipset name and search it. intel says it has 4 sata ports.

Than I edit the grub.cfg file sataportmap=4

 

now it works and sees 2 internal hdd as well. 

 

I think not sure if use usb which bellow 8 gb some how it won't work. 

 

Thank you.
