Hi,

the usb stick of my NAS310 doesn't boot anymore.

fck.ext4 shows 31 bad blocks (read). So I am assuming that's the issue.

The question is now: Do I need to buy another USB stick (and have it fail again in a year or two) or can I install debian on the internal HDD? I can't remember anymore why it wasn't on the HDD in the first place.

Very happy for any help, thanks!

You could run USB rootfs fine, with some wear-prevention setup as described here:

Which u-boot is on your box? stock u-boot or my u-bootrelease?

You can install directly to the HDD, but you need to run a USB rootfs first to make it easier.

While running the system with USB rootds, format the HDD and untar the tarball the same way you installed USB rootfs. With stock u-boot, there is more set up to be done. But with my released u-boot 2017.07 for this box, it should boot straight into the HDD rootfs (after removing the USB rootfs and reboot).

Thank's, I'll replace the internal HDD with an SDD and install there.

I remembered that the reason for using a USB key in the first place was that otherwise the HDD can't spin down, and a SSD of course doesn't have that problem.

I got the new SSD and I am trying to set it up.

Your uboot is installed on the box (I had an older version of your debian releases running for a year) so that means I need to prepare the SSD only since your uboot will recognize them?

The issue is that as far as I can see I need to install 'linux-image-5.19.2-kirkwood-tld-1_1.0_armel.deb' on the box, but I don't have a working system on the box atm.

Which means I can't run

cd /boot
mkimage -A arm -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0x00008000 -e 0x00008000 -n Linux-5.19.2-kirkwood-tld-1 -d vmlinuz-5.19.2-kirkwood-tld-1 uImage
mkimage -A arm -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip -a 0x00000000 -e 0x00000000 -n initramfs-5.19.2-kirkwood-tld-1 -d initrd.img-5.19.2-kirkwood-tld-1 uInitrd

Can I prepare the files on another linux machine?

There is no need to go to that trouble, just use the latest rootfs Debian-5.13.6-kirkwood-tld-1-rootfs-bodhi.tar.bz2. Get it running on the SSD. And then upgrade kernel to 5.19.2-kirkwood-tld-1 .

That worked on the first try, thank you so much! <3
