uxer Posted May 1, 2023 Share #1 Posted May 1, 2023 Hi. I've installed DSM 7.1.1-42962 as VM on ESXI using image build with TinyCore RedPill Loader (withfriend) and I've installed update 5 on DSM. Initially I've selected E1000e network adapter in ESXi and now I would like to change it to VMXNET 3. Synology VM will not boot after that change (it doesn't have adequate network drivers, I think). So I thought that I can add these drivers using TCRP Image Build again. I've executed these commands: ./rploader.sh fullupgrade ./rploader.sh serialgen DS918+ realmac ./rploader.sh satamap ./rploader.sh build ds918p-7.1.1-42962 withfriend ./rploader.sh backup exitcheck.sh reboot The problem is that after rebooting, DSM has complained that there is something wrong with system partition (I think that it expected system with Update 5, but TCRP has build image without any updates). I've restored system partition from backup and configured network adapter as E1000e, so now it's working again. My question is: how to properly add VMXNET network driver using TCRP?

mojojojotroi Posted May 22, 2023 Share #2 Posted May 22, 2023 Did you use the version dedicated to VMware ESXi ? : https://github.com/pocopico/tinycore-redpill/raw/main/tinycore-redpill.v0.4.6.vmdk.gz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
