/usr/lib/modules-load.d/70-cpufreq-kernel.conf had the original acpi-cpufreq commented out with #. Tried with both pocopico redpill.misc and jumkey redpill.misc, able to install pat on Proxmox VM, after restarting, still not able to access the setup page in any form or way. At a loss here, and if there's no solution, might just downgrade back to 7.0.1-42218 and stay there

Demo of the current issue I'm facing after installation of PAT.

 

 

This happens cuase a systemd prerequisite has fail to load you can check with :

 

sudo systemctl list-units --failed
## OR ##
sudo systemctl list-units --state failed

@pocopico and @Peter Suh

 

Its it possible to make tc use tg3 anyway?  I tried the force_add and it just says that tg3 is already added.  Is there a way disable the ext check for a short period of time?

 

yes it was requested in the past ... assuming that you have loaded what ever extensions you need manually, you can use :

 

./rploader.sh build xxxxx manual

Ok, looks like my NIC is the issue here.. F1BD4BDE-66DF-408B-A76D-421A566CAA16.thumb.jpeg.82ed462b54e8a921369c6d2e94c5bae5.jpeg

And looks like there’s some other issues as well, is there any solutions to any of these? If these are Ethernet based errors, maybe switching to vmxnet3 would help? Or virtio?

The systemd-modules-load.service is a prerequisite for most systemd services.

 

You can check details of systemd-modules-load.service : sudo systemctl status  systemd-modules-load.service

Hi, thank you once again for trying to help.

I think the logs will be long.

Hope you can find what I am doing wrong:

 

 

I think the problem starts here:

 

 

Here is the dmesg from tc:

The Hdd in proxmox as scsi is: [  572.815557] sd 14:0:0:0: [sdh] 488397168 512-byte logical blocks: (250 GB/233 GiB)

 

 

dmesg from DSM:

 

Same result:

524855116_Capturadeecr2022-04-06s16_26_48.thumb.png.90d641b26593561a8398a0262dc9a7fe.png

Hi @Indio,

 

The module is running. It's sufficient to see in the dmesg log of the DSM the lines "... smart_shim.c:818> Handling ioctl ...". So until here, all is right installed.

 

Regarding your problem, I see that all seems OK with the HD. What's the problem now? Remember that I'm using VMWARE ESXi and not PROMOX. So I don't know how to enable VIRTUAL SSD in the qemu configuration. However, I feel it can be enabled. Search in the documentation about how to mark a virtual harddisk as SSD.

 

Regards.

VMware ESXi didn't work for me. The only worked version installed for me is 7.0.1-42218 (918+ but whatever version), and I didn't remember how I did... The only think I know/see is that it's mandatory to have 2 network interfaces to get 1 working (5 for 3622xs+).

Current working version (7.0.1) has 2 network insterface and it work. BIOS mode and that's it... 1 vmdk (convert with v2v converter) in SATA 0:0 and 1 disk of DATA (4To thin provisioning) in SATA 0:1.

Cannot reproduce a working VM with same configuration with current redpill-loader, 7.0.1 or 7.1. Try many platform, not working. No visible error at boot (serial console). First boot and install are ok. But said that the system is in repair state after first reboot.

 

@pocopicoI'm wondering if the kernel has not change, because the RC version has disapear, but have the same build number. Do you think I have to regenerate the BSP ? 

Regenerating now, and compare the 2 files... I will let you know

EDIT : same binary...


And just for information, I'm on ESXi 7.0u2. @pocopicoCannot boot with your vmdk tinycore, it said that it's an incorrect format. The only way to get a working version is to convert the img to vmdk (v2v converter)

Hello pocopico,

 

Please correct extention: https://github.com/pocopico/rp-ext/blob/main/atlantic/rpext-index.json

I've got errors:

[!] Failed to dump extension pocopico.atlantic for platform ds920p_42218 as its recipe file cannot be retrieved. Isn't the extension misspelled or not supported on that platform?

 

[#] Verifying /home/tc/redpill-load/custom/extensions/pocopico.atlantic/ds920p_42218/check-atlantic.sh file... [OK]
[-] Recipe file for extension pocopico.atlantic platform ds920p_42218 is logically invalid - recipe defines kmod crc-itu-t.ko *FILE* which doesn't exist after all files entries are processed. You SHOULD contact the extension packer to report that (see below)


Thanks

You need to change the VMX file for the network interface to "e1000e" which works with most platforms (except the AMD ones). Another option would be to leave it as is and recreate the loader but add the e1000 or vmxnet3 extension before you build the loader (vmxnet3 is always the best option for vmware VMs in terms of speed etc)

 

./rploader.sh ext broadwellnk-7.1.0-42621 add   https://github.com/pocopico/rp-ext/raw/main/e1000/rpext-index.json 

or 

./rploader.sh ext broadwellnk-7.1.0-42621 add   https://github.com/pocopico/rp-ext/raw/main/vmxnet3/rpext-index.json 

 

VGA output is missing from the syno kernel. I you are using VM workstation, you can create a serial port and putty to it. This way you will see all kernel boot messages and finally log into the VM. 

 

image.png.ed944beb2fade522c090d8a8076c1fa1.png

 

 

You can then use putty to connect to that serial \\.\pipe\ds920p_710

 

 

 

ok so i rebuilt the loader after adding the vmxnet3 NIC extension. I also setup the serial port connection so i could see what was going on the with teh VM after the loader's" Booting booting" mesage.

So this is where my vm seems to be hanging as i see in the serial console, below are the last few lines. See attached txt file for the rest of the full log:

Can someone help me with getting it to work on Unraid? After building it does seem to build. but it seems like there is no network attached. I only see lo when I do ifconfig on the cli. I've tried both virtio and virtio-net and br0 and virtual br0. Even tried adding two interfaces.

 

The weird thing is that I do see the eth0 and eth1 interfaces when I am in the loader... But not after building in DSM.

 

Also tried to add this, but not working: https://github.com/jumkey/redpill-load/raw/develop/redpill-virtio/rpext-index.json

I only saw that on DVA3221. For some reason (that I didn’t have time to look up) the console stops there. Did you try any other version ?

The sata config

So 6+8 = 14  I tried 6, 14, and the stock 58

 

I can still test ds918

 

However, if the extension needs an update I found this on the web that says the LSi 9207 card 1000:0087  works with kernels 4.4 - 5.17

Try SataMap 68 DiskIdxMap 0007

SasIdxMap 0 should place your lsi card drives in order.

 

if that doesnt work remove 8, make disk 00 and keep SasIdxMap.  Reason being, right now just using lsi card i have NO satamap or diskidxmap set and it works as should. Keep Sasidxmap to keep drives in order

With DS3617, it loads the extension automatically for mpt2sas

 

Found SAS Controller : pciid 1000d00000087  Required Extension : mpt2sas
Searching for matching extension for mpt2sas
Found matching extension :
"https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pocopico/rp-ext/master/mpt2sas/rpext-index.json"

 

However, when I test DS3617  ./rploader.sh build bromolow-7.0.1-42218  I  get the same message as with  DS3622 broadwellnk-7.0.1-42218 when it boots " no drives detected"

 

The sata config

So 6+8 = 14  I tried 6, 14, and the stock 58

 

I can still test ds918

 

However, if the extension needs an update I found this on the web that says the LSi 9207 card 1000:0087  works with kernels 4.4 - 5.17

http://linux-hardware.org/index.php?id=pci:1000-0087-1590-0041

mpt3sas_scsih.c

 

 

 

 

For 3622, the mpt2sas driver is already incorporated into the mpt3sas driver / extension. 
 

if you need to manually add that, you can. 
 

is your HBA card in IT or RAID mode?  It would be better for you if it were in IT mode.

My card is HBA no raid.  I tried with the extensions and mpt2sas an mpt3sas no luck but it it is the sata config then the test is bad..

 

My system only has drives on LSI sata is turned off in bios I don't think it matters. Because LSPCI knows all......

 

I'll test Dvalin21 fixes now be back in a bit

 

Thank You

Well I tried all the combinations and upgraded wit the extension https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pocopico/rp-ext/master/mpt3sas/rpext-index.json

It didn't work so I'll try DS 918 and update this thread later

 

Thanks

 

I tried three of the seven platforms, ds918, ds920, and ds3622 at BAREMETAL
The only ds3622 and HBA were able to operate stably.

The ds920 / ds1621 using dts does not recognize the HDD at all.

@pocopico seems to be able to test mainly on VM.
He must be very busy, but ds920 / ds1621 would like @pocopico to pre-test at BAREMETAL.
Too much energy is consumed by users for testing.

i don't really share this point of view tbh...

It might be better to have people that really want to have those version on a BareMetal testing it and reporting/fixing.
As you mentioned, he should be quite overloaded already so asking for more from a person doing that during free time doesn't make sense.
