Install debian on Netgear stora

Hi, I own a NETGEAR STORA that I would like to make it a "real nas" :D with Debian and OpenMediaVault inside. To the device I already have root access in SSH following some steps in in the forum topic. Can someone help me by explaining me to simple steps? Do I necessarily have to have Arduino to complete the required operation? Many thanks.

Summary of the steps.

If you are inside stock OS, you can install both new U-Boot and new Debian rootfs:

1. On another Linux box, create the Debian rootfs using Debian-5.13.6-kirkwood-tld-1-rootfs-bodhi.tar.bz2

Debian rootfs:
https://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,12096

2. Dowload the u-boot tarball uboot.2017.07-tld-1.netgear_ms2110.bodhi.tarto this new USB rootfs:

New U-Boot:
https://forum.doozan.com/read.php?3,12381

3. And then attach the new USB rootfs to the box. Follow the u-boot installation instruction to flash u-boot. Note that serial console is strongly recommended. So you can test UART booting and know there is a recovery path. Flashing u-boot is always risky in that a mis-step will brick the box. Read the new u-boot installation post and take it slow, ask question if you are not sure about anything.


=========

You can also avoid fashing new u-boot. But it only work with serial console, where you can enter u-boot envs to boot the new rootfs and not commiting to save anything. This approach is non-destructive. While installing new u-boot will be make stock FW unusable (you can not boot back to stock with new u-boot).

bodhi's corner (buy bodhi a beer)

Hi Bodhi,
I am in this situation, what did I do wrong?
I only completed step 1 because step 2 I did not understand, what should I do with the file uboot.2017.07-tld-1.netgear_ms2110.bodhi.tar ?
For now I would like to keep debian only in the USB stick and only after everything goes well will I update the FW of the nas.

Many thanks

Alberto

Alberto,

This error indictates that the rootfs was not created correctly.

> ** ext2fs_devread() read error - block

You need follow the instruction in the rootfs release thread very closely. If you'd like, post the terminal session log when you create the rootfs here (copy/paste everything on the screen), and I'll check it for you.

Hi Bodhi,
first of all thanks for the support, now I will list what I did.

2) I copied the Debian-5.13.6-kirkwood-tld-1-rootfs-bodhi.tar.bz2 file to the USB stick.

3) I finally put the USB stick in the nas and started it with these commands

setenv usb_set_bootargs 'setenv bootargs console=ttyS0,115200 root=LABEL=rootfs rootdelay=10 earlyprintk=serial'
setenv load_uimage 'ext2load usb 0:1 0x800000 /boot/uImage'
setenv load_uinitrd 'ext2load usb 0:1 0x2100000 /boot/uInitrd'
setenv usb_boot 'mw 0x800000 0 1; run load_uimage; run load_uinitrd; bootm 0x800000 0x2100000'
setenv usb_bootcmd 'run usb_set_bootargs; run usb_boot'
setenv bootcmd 'usb reset; run usb_bootcmd; usb stop; reset'

printenv
boot

4) then it gave me the error that I sent you earlier.

Many thanks

Alberto

Ok. So after you used fdisk as above to create the partition. How did you format the Ext3 partition? and what Linux system you were using ?

Below the lsblk command does show the Ext3 partition. But I like to see how the format was done. Was it done using mkfs.ext3 command or with a GUI?

So, to create the partition I used gparted, as distribution I used CSI Linux once and last time Ubuntu Mate 20.04. Now I bought a new USB stick because I suspect that the one I used was not in very good condition.
Do you have a suggestion on how to prepare the USB flash drive from the command line?

Thanks

Alberto

Alberto,

Using GUI on Ubuntu sometime is problematic, as some users have reported the default values caused problem booting.

So just use the fdisk command, wipe it clean (o command) and create new partition (n command), and take default for everything.

fdisk /dev/sdc

And format it

mkfs.ext3 -L rootfs /dev/sdc1

Hi Bodhi,
the problem was definitely my USB drive, in any case the new one I prepared from the command line and everything went well.
Is it possible to make booting from USB permanent at this point?
Finally, when I am in root mode in Debian can I proceed to install openmediavault, do I have to do any other steps first?

Thank you very much!

After you have rebooted the system a few times with this set of envs like you did:

setenv usb_set_bootargs 'setenv bootargs console=ttyS0,115200 root=LABEL=rootfs rootdelay=10 earlyprintk=serial'
setenv load_uimage 'ext2load usb 0:1 0x800000 /boot/uImage'
setenv load_uinitrd 'ext2load usb 0:1 0x2100000 /boot/uInitrd'
setenv usb_boot 'mw 0x800000 0 1; run load_uimage; run load_uinitrd; bootm 0x800000 0x2100000'
setenv usb_bootcmd 'run usb_set_bootargs; run usb_boot'
setenv bootcmd 'usb reset; run usb_bootcmd; usb stop; reset'

printenv
boot

And satisfied that everything works. The next reboot you would run saveenv command before boot:

printenv
saveenv
boot

And then reboot it once more to see it automatically boots into USB rootfs.

It's a fully functional Debian system. So follow the roofts installation instruction to finish some recommended steps (several Notes after Step 5). Thing such as creating swap file, and upgrading system should be done. And then install other packages.

Hi Bodhi, maybe I sang victory too soon, Debian 11 from USB works fine but OMV6 just won't install, I ran into the many errors that I can't solve. I haven't figured out if the hardware in my hand is too limited for OMV6. I would be fine with an earlier version as long as it works. Can you help me again to understand what is wrong?

The above errors are because the default behavior of linux systemd is to use a set proportion of ram for the /run partition. This ends up being to small on devices with only 128M of RAM. The least troublesome prevention of this issue is to add the following line to the /etc/fstab file:

none /run tmpfs defaults,size=32M 0 0

Then mount /run again:

#    mount -o remount /run

Now check run with df:

#    df -h /run

After future reboots you should then always have sufficient space for the /run partition.

Hi, thank you all for your help, it was really valuable!!! I have finally reached the end of my goal. I installed Debian 9 + OMV4 on NETGEAR STORA leaving the original boot unchanged. The only thing I replaced was my USB flash drive with a USB hard drive for speed reasons. Since I am a very tenacious person, I asked myself a question. Is it possible to make the USB hard drive boot by attaching it directly to the SATA of the NAS and put it in RAID 1 mode so that I can free up the USB port and the clutter of the external drive? I read this post about it: https://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,94014 but I am not clear on the steps and whether I can ultimately boot from SATA into RAID 1. Can you guys help me with this?

Alberto

Alberto,

Yes it is possible.

The USB HDD drive was formatted as Ext3. So you can put it in the SATA slot and boot it. No RAID involved, just a SATA Ext3 rootfs..

Howver, since you are booting with stock uboot, the envs mut be adjusted to boot SATA (with the new uboot it is not necessary to do this).

I will be back and write those adjustment for you.

Alberto,

Put the HDD from USB HDD drive into the 1st SATA slot. Power up, interrupt serial console. Some USB HDD controller is old and might cause some weird problem when you format it in the enclosure. So to see if everything is normal, run these to test the spin up.

ide reset
ide part

If you see the HDD is initialzed OK and the partition show what you expect, then do

setenv sata_set_bootargs 'setenv bootargs console=ttyS0,115200 root=LABEL=rootfs rootdelay=10 earlyprintk=serial'
setenv load_uimage_sata 'ext2load ide 0:1 0x800000 /boot/uImage'
setenv load_uinitrd_sata 'ext2load ide 0:1 0x2100000 /boot/uInitrd'
setenv sata_boot 'mw 0x800000 0 1; run load_uimage_sata; run load_uinitrd_sata; bootm 0x800000 0x2100000'
setenv sata_bootcmd 'run sata_set_bootargs; run sata_boot'
setenv bootcmd 'ide reset; run sata_bootcmd; reset'

and then

boot
