Jtsarnas Posted October 14, 2016 Share #526 Posted October 14, 2016 Cant make wol to work no matter what I try. Whether I use the fake mac on the grub file or the real mac address. Was working perfect on dsm 5.2 but not anymore. When I bind the real mac with the machine's ip in the router settings, quickconnect doesnt work. Followed that method viewtopic.php?f=5&t=3059&hilit=wol but nothing. Any help would be extremely welcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s0nik Posted October 14, 2016 Share #527 Posted October 14, 2016 I've managed to install it on esxi 6u2 By adding a virtual harddrive when the system is on. When I try to add a disk or serial port right after importing it boots in pxe with no OS installed. Also when DSM was up, a reboot causes the same problem. I've set bios to efi and the boot disk to run first but no success. Verstuurd vanaf mijn LG-D855 met Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
satdream Posted October 14, 2016 Share #528 Posted October 14, 2016 Hy, this is a very interist project. I am currently running Xpenoboot_DS3615_5.2-5967 on a Asrock N3700 Board with 4 Sata disk in SHR2. Is there a way to migrate without having to re install everything? If so can soeone point me to latest image to be used? Thanks a lot Tested under ESXi with test disks (real sata disks SHR2 mounted via RDM) on Gen 8 ... only issue is that nobody knows how to change S/N MAC1 MAC2 in the install VMDK (btw, I wait to migrate my main DSM5.2 system with 23MB disks ...) I experimented migration from Xpenoboot 5.2 to the new loader without issues, system detected a migration, keeping the SHR2 etc. upgrade then to 6.2 with normal procedure from Synology repository. VMDK to use with ESXi is in #1 topic ... few people have had some problem, then a v10 VM is also available Page 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
optic Posted October 14, 2016 Share #529 Posted October 14, 2016 i did an update from xpeno 5.2 to dsm 6.0 on a micro gen8, migrated and works perfect now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just want to boot via USB, no VM, I think you call it baremetal. Is that possible? - If so which image can I use, there are so many different ones around here that it is hard to follow.

segator Posted October 14, 2016 Share #532 Posted October 14, 2016 Hi guys I can't help you to test but I was thinking maybe you need some place to keep files and a Automatic build system, if any of you can explain me how to compile the whole system I will create an a simple continuos integration(jenkins) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I do.. Unless I'm misinterpreting what you're trying to do! Always a chance! I thought I'd suggested a method (maybe I dreamed it?). ESXi.. You set up your VM in ESXi as you like it.. Shut it down. Go to the datastore on the host. Download the Boot drive VMDK of your VM to a new EMPTY folder on your PC.. You will note that there is more than one file when you download it (this is normal).. Your PC.. You should have Vmware workstation on your machine - this will allow you to Mount VMDK files as drive letters. Map the first VMDK file you downloaded to a Drive letter (NOT the vmdk file that has 'flat' or something in the file name), be sure to untick the 'read only' check box when mapping.. Go to the drive you mapped and edit the grub.cfg file. Save the file. Disconnect the mapped drive (right click on the VMDK file again) on your PC. ESXi again.. Next, go back to your datastore and upload BOTH vmdk files to the same location, one at a time. Close the datastore folder and power on your VM again. Watch how your SN and MAC addresses have changed.. Have a beer.. Yes, I've tested it and it works.. #H Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elpee Posted October 14, 2016 Share #534 Posted October 14, 2016 ... I experimented migration from Xpenoboot 5.2 to the new loader without issues, system detected a migration, keeping the SHR2 etc. upgrade then to 6.2 with normal procedure from Synology repository. So your system still stays back with Ext4, right? Any (option) chance to switch to Brtfs after the upgrade, if you want? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benoire Posted October 14, 2016 Share #535 Posted October 14, 2016 No, there is no gui way to upgrade from EXT4 to BTRFS. You can apparently do it via the command line but I've heard it can be a bit dodgy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think there is any way to migrate to btrfs from ext4 without data loss. The only thing you can do is backup your data and then recreate the drives with btrfs and copy your data back.

Dreadnought Posted October 14, 2016 Share #537 Posted October 14, 2016 Hey Guys, thanks for all your work. Now to my problem. I'm using an Acer H340 with the hybridbiosuefi2.img image. Everything is working properly on 6.0.2. but I have a reboot loop. On every shutdown the baremetal reboots. It's the same with the junuefibios.img or synoboot.img. I replaced SN / MAC / VID /PID and the ramdisk. Any idea? thanks for your help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lagrima2019 Posted October 15, 2016 Share #538 Posted October 15, 2016 First thanks for all the work. I'm using my own build machine cpu:intel i3-6100 mb:gigabyte h170m-d3h ram:kingston 16g ddr4-2133 psu:corsair rm550x hdd:4*3tb seagate nas hdd I used the usb boot image for bare metal in UEFI mode in first page on a sandisk ultra fit usb drive and edit the grub.cfg but just "Welcome to GRUB" and i can't even see anything in the assistant is lack of driver? thanks for helping Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronin Posted October 15, 2016 Share #539 Posted October 15, 2016 So I finally had the time to check. I have had xpenology for some years now and it's really great. I Run a HP N54l with an AMD Turion II processor and I was wondering if somebody made some progress with running DSM 6 on this machine bare metal? or is the only way currently Esxi?

Incompatible device backing specified for device '3' Update: my bad, I forgot that the drive I was trying to use for RDM was an old unused datastore; removed the datastore and now I'm able to add it. Also I can use the rdm's that I used on dsm5, but they are ext4 I have no space to backup all the data to migrate to btrfs so I gues I'll use the ext4 for now.

I do not understand why the raw VMDK never imported via ovf in ESXi is not able to be mapped/edit in VMWorkstation, and that once imported then re-exported it's possible to edit it under VMWorkstation ... Well, great thanks, I initiated the migration of my prod systems ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you read this thread (from page 10 to now), you wouldn't ask. New loader is good for both bare metal and VM, but right now not for your AMD system. Period.

But my idea is I have a Nas DSM 5.2 with 2TB x 8 HDDs. Data currently occupied 4 HDDs. When I finish migrating to DSM 6, I'll use the other 4 HDDs to create a new volume in Brtfs and move data from the old volume in Ext4 to the new volume. When the migration is done, I'll destroy the old volume and expand the new Brtfs volume to all 8 HDDs. I think there is A WAY to migrate to Btrfs from Ext4, right? What's your thoughts? Is it possilbe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it possilbe? That would work. When you add the HDD back to expand Btrfs volume, do it one HD at a time. What you are doing is not migration. Migration is in-place conversion.
