raduci Posted July 7, 2022 Share #53 Posted July 7, 2022 (edited) I have selected DS 918+ and used a Lenovo X260 laptop. Install process works fine until I am asked for the .pat file used for installation. Which pat file should we use? Latest synology_apollolake_918+.pat for DSM 7.1-42661-3 is not working, I get the error that the file is corrupted. Thank you for your amazing work! And I am answering myself: the working pat is DSM_DS918+_42661.pat Can we update to the latest version?

t1h8li Posted July 7, 2022 Share #55 Posted July 7, 2022 Dear fbelavenuto, Great work so far. Finally managed to get this up and running (bare metal) on an old HP IPM87-MP Mainboard(i5 Haswell, 8 GB RAM). One thing keeps bugging me though ... Generating of serial number doesnt seem to work properly (DS3615xs). Unable to register Synology Account (which seems to be nescessary to get VirtualMachineManager working) Any advice / hint /tipp appreciated ;-) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apriliars3 Posted July 7, 2022 Share #56 Posted July 7, 2022 @fbelavenuto Is it possible to get a loader.img with your arpl like as tinycore? I want to test my pendrive with other pcs on VMWare, because I can´t detect disks with tinycore. Your arpl I think no works well with VMWare, follow test with the last alphas. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pocopico Posted July 7, 2022 Share #57 Posted July 7, 2022 (edited) @fbelavenuto I want to ask one thing that might trigger a number of issues at some point in the future. Lets say, in a future upgrade, syno decides to upgrade kernel to a version other than the current, what will be the effect ? I guess a recreation of the loader containing all the addons with newer compiled modules will solve the issues. Are all user setttings somehow backed up in the configuration file ? Edit: I see the addons are progressing fast ! Good ! Edited July 7, 2022 by pocopico 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pocopico Posted July 7, 2022 Share #59 Posted July 7, 2022 (edited) @fbelavenuto Excuse me if that has already been implemented, You have to find a way to overcome a certain limitation of buildroot. The update of the local files. Can you use a file stored in p3 and extract that file into a location ? e.g. /opt/arpl ? That way you will not have to create the buildroot each time but just use the extra file in p3. You can then update that single file and have the latest version. You could also fetch that update file directly from github ? Edited July 7, 2022 by pocopico Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, today I and @ikky_phoenix did several tests in vmware and discovered several bugs, so I'll pass a link with a new image for tests.

Edit: I see the addons are progressing fast ! Good ! I'm already testing new options to update online without having to redo the image. I created scripts to automate the compilation of modules and recreate the addons, I even made it work in github actions, so it will be fast.

I recommend keeping it that way, as it is not possible to guarantee that a future update will work, manually updating after testing is the best way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks pocopico, I studied the best way to update, this idea of yours crossed my mind, but I preferred to implement the rootfs update directly. There is already in the latest alpha images the upgrade option, which works for addons and LKMs and will work for arpl after releasing a non-pre-release 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Github actions is still running, so it will generate the images. To force a specific MAC, go to "cmdline menu", "Add/edit a cmdline item", enter "netif_num" as name, enter "1" as value. Repeat the process to add "mac1" with MAC value without symbols (ex: 001122334455). No need to rebuild loader, add cmdline items and boot directly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pocopico Posted July 8, 2022 Share #69 Posted July 8, 2022 (edited) @fbelavenuto FYI, A condition i fell into on my test system. I configured the loader for DVA1622, I installed 42661 and updated to U3. I then went into configure the loader and recreated my loader. I then ended having a junior does not match root issue, cause my junior is 7.1 and root is 7.1 U3. Any ideas how to prevent that from happening ? Edit : The recover button on DSM Gui seems to fix the issue , great Also could we somehow cache the pat files that we use so that we dont need to download them again during build ?

When you recreate the loader after a small update it causes this problem! I still don't know how to avoid this. About the cache, if partition 3 is bigger than 2GB the loader uses it to save the .pats. If you burn to a big pendrive, the loader alone increases the third partition and already uses it. Here at home I use proxmox, I increase the size of the image "arpl.img" to 4GB with a script, so in proxmox I can use the disk as cache. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The issue goes down to this -> https://github.com/RedPill-TTG/redpill-lkm/blob/061b3e643d4bca663f24fb3dee397ecb77d8e44c/config/runtime_config.c .vid = VID_PID_EMPTY, .pid = VID_PID_EMPTY, .dom_size_mib = 1024, //usually the image will be used with ESXi and thus it will be ~100MB anyway The size of the sata dom disk cannot be greater to what you set in the LKM runtime_config.
