Frik

Something strange happened... I tried to run e2fsck again on the unmounted file system by rebooting but injecting telnetd in rc.shutdown (as before) but this time /dev/md0 refused to be unmounted. So I inserted the following lines in /etc/init.d/rc.shutdown, just below the line # swapoff # swapoff #…

Ok, thanks for that, it makes sense. I should have read the man page for e2fsck first, there it also states : Note that in general it is not safe to run e2fsck on mounted filesystems. The only exception is if the -n option is specified, and -c, -l, or -L options are not specified. However, even if it is safe to do so, the…

I managed to get the list of packages to install now. Quite a strange beast, the NSA325, but for some reason, I don't want to get rid of it. Thanks for your help, I can now keep it alive for a couple of years more ;-)

Hi @Mijzelf, thanks again for your help, really appreciate it. I just have another question about your original answer above, hope you don't mind. I think I'm nearly there. You said : "add a mirror for the stock packages (https://zyxel.diskstation.eu/forum/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=174). " I'm not sure what you meant by…

Hi Mijzelf, I've tried your suggestion, but I cannot find the file Logitech.sh. I have found: /i-data/47d31d36/.system/zy-pkgs/etc/init.d/SqueezCenter It looks like an executable and starts with the following: #!/bin/sh export LANG=en_US.UTF-8 DB_CHECKER=/usr/local/zy-pkgs/bin/squeezecenter_dbchecker…

@Sapphire23, thanks for the suggestion, I've backed up my current configuration settings just in case. @Mijzelf, thanks for the explanation. What I don't understand then, is what happens when I install for example zy-pkgs. For example, I installed the Entware-ng package, I want to see if I can get some Perl packages…

Hi Mijzelf, thanks again for the info. I will think about recreating the RAID array then, it doesn't sound too hard. Perhaps I will backup everything first to another place, just in case. The problem with the license, I will look into that. Right now I'm running the media server on my PC, afaik it's also without a license.…

Just another (perhaps dumb?) question... afaik, if I install another OS on the NAS, I will also have to install some NAS software to take care of storage, RAID etc. Basically all the software that was installed when I bought the NAS will have to be replaced, right? So for the media server I will use Logitech, but I guess I…

Hi Mijzelf, thanks a lot for the tips. As far as losing the web interface is concerned, I don't think that will be a big problem, as I have not really used it much anyways. As long as I can access the files themselves remotely, and run a media server, I should be ok. I will have a look at Doozan's page, hopefully I will be…
