ginepraio Posted May 26, 2022 Share #1 Posted May 26, 2022 (edited) Hi everyone, I've been trying to install xpenology for days now. I am using jun loader 1.04b. My problem is that the nas is recognized, but after the installation on reboot it is not found anymore. This actually prevents the installation and if I don't format the hard disks and try a new installation, the system offers me the migration, but when it has finished rebooting the problem remains. I tried 4 usb sticks, a new one arrived today, same problem, I tried to mount a lan card on pci express (realtek) the integrated one is an atheros, I tried to install with a single hard disk, I disabled the hard drives from the bios startup disk,leaving only usb as primary, but nothing always the same problem, I'm sure I have changed correctly, the id, the serial and the mac in grub. sorry for my English. My system: i5 4460 asrock h81m-itx Ram 16gb Edited May 26, 2022 by ginepraio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyride Posted May 26, 2022 Share #2 Posted May 26, 2022 Make sure you are installing a supported version. The last DSM version for Jun 1.04b is 6.2.3-25426 https://global.download.synology.com/download/DSM/release/6.2.3/25426/DSM_DS918%2B_25426.pat That means download and save the above to your computer, then do "Manual Install" where you upload the PAT file from your PC. If you let DSM download and install for you, it will pull an incompatible version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyride Posted May 26, 2022 Share #3 Posted May 26, 2022 Also the embedded LAN card is: a Qualcomm® Atheros® AR8171 - there is a Synology native driver for this but there might be a silicon rev that is newer than the driver. Supported PCI ID's are 1969:1091, 1969:10A1, 1969:E091 Maybe it might not be supported without using extra.lzma.... @IG-88 its the alx embedded kernel module, any advice?
