Boot loader updates itself
Hi All
I was doing some testing to prep for updating some systems and noticed that the 1.02b boot loader updates to the latest version of DSM installed/updated to.
In my test;
Created a new flash drive with 1.02b vid/pid etc
Booted system with a clean hdd attached and Syno Assistant found as '6.1-15047' uninstalled
Installed DSM 6.1-15047 - ok
Setup rest of system - ok
Update to DSM 6.1.3-15152 - ok
I removed the attached drive and rebooted
there are indeed newer files from update/system installed (where did i get that the usb flash drive is not updated, maybe it was in 5.0 i used before 6.1?)
root of 1st partition
GRUB_VER
root of 2nd partition
checksum.syno
grub_cksum.syno
rd.gz
zImage
so when you have to recreate the usb flash drive you would at least have to restore the files from the patchlevel you had installed like 6.1.3 update 8 or 6.1.4 (without update) - have no
