Thanks! But it is still stubborn. This is what I did
========================
=== PART 1 on Ubuntu ===
========================
0. I format a 8 GB USB drive as ext3. I use Ubuntu and I opened Disks as normal user (gnome-disk-utility 3.18.3.1, UDisks 2.1.7 (built against 2.1.6)).
Plugged in the USB drive
Unmounted the USB drive in Disks.
Selected Format Partition...
Selected
> Erase: Don't overwrite existing data (Quick)
> Type: Custom (Enter filesystems type)
> Name: rootfs
> Filesystem: ext3
Clicked Format...
And then as last step in Disks, I mounted the USB drive
1. Then I start a terminal as root, this is the terminal I use below, e.g. I start a terminal and write
2. I make a directory where I can work (I deleted the old one, so all is fresh)
3. I download linux-4.13.5-kirkwood-tld-1-bodhi.tar.bz2 to ~/stuff from https://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,12096,12096#msg-12096
4. I download Debian-4.12.1-kirkwood-tld-1-rootfs-bodhi.tar.bz2 from https://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,12096,12096#msg-12096
5. On a Linux PC I go to the USB drive and extract the rootfs into it
It extract a lot of files, and it takes some time...
6. I check fstab, does it say ext3
Seems OK
7. I create uImage with embedded DTB
It say
And as a last step
8. I unmount the USB drive in Ubuntu and remove it.
====================
=== PART 2 on LG ===
====================
9. I plug in the rootfs USB drive in the LG N1D1DD1.
I also connect the FT232 USB/serial adaptor between the Ubuntu computer and the LG NAS.
10. I start GtkTerm as root, e.g. start a terminal and in it write
11. I set up my GtkTerm. I click the menu items Configuration - Port and there I choose
> Port: /dev/ttyUSB0
> Baud Rate: 115200
And click OK
12. I do as Ron writes
"Apply power to the NAS and press the red power button on the back of the device. Meanwhile repeatedly hit a button on your keyboard, so the u-boot autostarting can be disabled. If you see the kernel boot messages, the stock OS has started booting, so you need to unplug the power (or shut down via the web UI) and repeat this step until you can access the u-boot command line."
I get access to the u-boot command line.
13. On LG. I set variables
14. On LG. With my gtkterm I try USB start
15. On LG. I try ext2load usb 0:1 0x800000 /boot/uImage
16. On LG. I try ext2load usb 0:1 0x1100000 /boot/uInitrd
17. I check my envs
18. On LG. I try to boot the kernel with bootm 0x800000 0x1100000

raffe,
First Test
1. Create the rootfs:
In step 1, use this command (don't use su -i)
And do the rest of the rootfs creation as you did before
2. Boot:
Take the USB to the LG. Power up, interrupt serial console and, run the revised envs:
Note:
And copy the entire terminal log when you create rootfs, and paste it here. I'd need to see exatcly what you did on the Ubuntu terminal to spot any error. And also what going on in serial console too during boot (the entire log from u-boot banner until it got stuck).

Second Test:
If the uImage is good, the Linux kernel should at least starts and print out something in the first test (because of earlyprintk=serial). I don't expect it to boot completely, but I want to see the kernel starts, and then stops when it tries to mount the rootfs. If it gets to mounting rootfs, then we'll load the uInitrd in this 2nd test.

raffe,
Awesome! we are getting there :)
The 1st test is exactly what I expected. The kernel loaded and ran OK. But it can't mount the rootfs because there is no uInitrd.
The 2nd test also told me what I expected: that the load address for uInitrd is not good because this stock u-boot limitation in reallocating memory.
Please try the 2nd test again with revised envs

YES, it booted to Debian :-D
This is what worked (if anyone needs this in the future)
========================
=== PART 1 on Ubuntu ===
========================
0. I format a 8 GB USB drive as ext3. I use Ubuntu and I opened Disks as normal user (gnome-disk-utility 3.18.3.1, UDisks 2.1.7 (built against 2.1.6)).
Plugged in the USB drive
Unmounted the USB drive in Disks.
Selected Format Partition...
Selected
> Erase: Don't overwrite existing data (Quick)
> Type: Custom (Enter filesystems type)
> Name: rootfs
> Filesystem: ext3
Clicked Format...
And then as last step in Disks, I mounted the USB drive
1. Then I start a terminal as root, this is the terminal I use below, e.g. I start a terminal and write
2. I make a directory where I can work (I deleted the old one, so all is fresh)
3. I download linux-4.13.5-kirkwood-tld-1-bodhi.tar.bz2 to ~/stuff from https://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,12096,12096#msg-12096
4. I download Debian-4.12.1-kirkwood-tld-1-rootfs-bodhi.tar.bz2 from https://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,12096,12096#msg-12096
5. On a Linux PC I go to the USB drive and extract the rootfs into it
It extract a lot of files, and it takes some time...
6. I check fstab, does it say ext3
Seems OK
7. I create uImage with embedded DTB
It say
And as a last step
8. I unmount the USB drive in Ubuntu and remove it.
====================
=== PART 2 on LG ===
====================
9. I plug in the rootfs USB drive in the LG N1D1DD1.
I also connect the FT232 USB/serial adaptor between the Ubuntu computer and the LG NAS.
10. I start GtkTerm as root, e.g. start a terminal and in it write
11. I set up my GtkTerm. I click the menu items Configuration - Port and there I choose
> Port: /dev/ttyUSB0
> Baud Rate: 115200
And click OK
12. I do as Ron writes
"Apply power to the NAS and press the red power button on the back of the device. Meanwhile repeatedly hit a button on your keyboard, so the u-boot autostarting can be disabled. If you see the kernel boot messages, the stock OS has started booting, so you need to unplug the power (or shut down via the web UI) and repeat this step until you can access the u-boot command line."
I get access to the u-boot command line.

17. I check my envs
18. On LG. I try to boot the kernel with bootm 0x800000 0x1100000
19. I login with root/root

Cool :)
Now we can check LEDs control, and other aspects such as SPI mtd partitions definition, fw_printenv/setenv... so on, to make sure they are working ok.

raffe,

Yes :)
1. When you set u-boot envs, never save them until you test all the paths. Especially, the envs that I have scripted are good for testing only (when we do it for real, it should be simpler and more elegant). And always save your current envs to a notepad or text file before changing them.
2. Here is what needs to be done to boot both USB and HDD. Run this command (don't save them) to boot both configurations: plug in USB to boot Debian, and unplug USB to boot stock OS in HDD).
3. As for USB boot, in the next post I will show you how to script it in a way that it will not interfere with the current stock envs.

Here is how to setup to boot USB and HDD
Run this a few times to make sure it works in both cases, and then do saveenv to make it permanent.

Thanks!
OK, this looks nice (and much better then mine ;)
I read at http://www.compulab.co.il/utilite-computer/wiki/index.php/U-Boot_Scripts and I understand it as a "normal" if syntax that says
If run_boot works OK (USB is there), then just do it.
Else, but it run_boot dont' work OK (USB is not there), then setenv mainlineLinux no and then run bootcmd_hdd.
And this also look better, but I am afraid that the bootcmd_usb is to long. We need to cut it up somehow.
But I still don't understand why the old bootcmd_hdd suddenly don't work now. It worked if I accidentally was to slow, then it booted up the LG OS. Just moments before we got the USB to work. If I look in the old envs from this post https://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,26671,42324#msg-42324 and compare with them I have today. In the one I have today:
If we look at bootcmd_hdd it say
The the stuff it refers to in envs are the same as before
So, if bootcmd_hdd dont use stuff that are "NEW (not in old)" and the only other thing that has changed is mainlineLinux=no. Should not this work?
EDIT
Even though I tried to read about mw at https://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/UBootCmdGroupMemory I can't say I really understand it and how it may help bootm 0x2000000;. But I didn't let a such small matter stop me to try this (that didn't work)

I'm afraid that you might have changed too many envs to keep track of. Note the most important thing in doing this is not to touch any of the stock envs. Keep them as they are unchanged. The only stock env we need to set is mainlineLinux, so we have to reverse it when running stock.
Here is the new set of USB envs to set again it later (older stock u-boot has many limitation, the length of the env is one of them).
Test 3

You are right, in the end it is my fault :/
Noobs are that way, running around and pushing all big red buttons they find ;)
The only time I saved envs was when I did this :(
I tried
EDIT NOTE
Please note that getting the LG to boot the old hard drive is since 5 minutes ago a more academic than a important thing.
I have now planned to buy a 6GB hard drive (this one https://www.wdc.com/products/internal-storage/wd-red.html#WD60EFRX ), install it in the LG N1T1 and then install Debian-4.12.1-kirkwood directly on that new hard drive.
According to http://forum.nas-portal.org/archive/index.php/t-16812.html it is possible at least with a 3GB drive.

That's very true. Booting stock OS is really for rescue purpose. But stock OS is also on an HDD, so it is not good at all as a rescue system anyway. Your rescue system, if you want to have one, could be your current USB drive, once you copy this USB rootfs to the new HDD.
> it is possible at least with a 3GB drive.
3TB. That means this LG stock u-boot has been patched with that capability (older u-boot does not have >2TB capability).
Let's try this

setenv mainlineLinux yes setenv bootcmd_hdd 'run read-kern; setenv bootargs $(console) $(root_path) lpj=4964352 earlyprintk=serial; printenv bootargs; printenv; bootm 0x2000000' run bootcmd_hddI hope this stock kernel has the earlyprintk enabled. If that is the case, we will see the reason for the kernel booting freeze in the boot log.

Hmm, do you mean it will maybe not be possible with a 6TB hdd? I was planing to do this (don't know exactly how to do it yet, but I hope Google will be able to help me)
Test 4
Unfortunately the LG is at home and I can only reach it via VPN to the Ubuntu PC. But as it after Test 3 has stopped at "booting the kernel." I have to get home and physically turn it off and on before we can continue. It is late morning here, so maybe in ~6 hours I can be at home :(
EDIT
Found some nice info here at https://forum.doozan.com/read.php?3,10710,10841 . Guess swap should be 256MB

- On the 6TB hdd create a smaller 50GB ext3 partition for u-boot to recognize
- On that 50GB partition install the same rootfs as on the USB
- When Linux debian 4.12.1-kirkwood-tld-1 has started up on the 50GB partition, it will create for us a 2GB swap and a ~5,9TB GPT partition (and later use it.)

Yes. Stock u-boot (i.e. old u-boot) usually can not handle GPT partition table (therefore >2TB partition). So it can only see the partitions if you have MBR partition table.
I don't have the GPL source code so cannot tell you for sure, but I don't think this stock u-boot support it. It is quite old.
So you would have to have to either:
- Split it in 3 MBR partitions
or
- Use a hybrid MBR/GPT table. And have one less-than-2TB MBR partition, and one or more larger-than-2TB GPT partitions.
But first, when you get the HDD, just format it as one 6TB GPT partition , boot with USB rootfs, and see it can be recognized. Run u-boot command
My recommendation is to split it into several MBR partitions if stock u-boot does not support GPT partition. Hybrid partition is cumbersome.
I don't know how far ron got in building new u-boot for this box. I could roll new u-boot if I have more free time. However, I would do this only when ron has given up building this u-boot.

Why not just do

Whaaaaat!!!!! It worked at the first try! 8-)
With Gparted I made on the new 6TB hdd a GTP partition table with
91 GB ext3 (name rootfs)
~5,9TB ext4 (name data)
512 MB swap
Then I did the stuff from 1 to 7 here https://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,26671,42569#msg-42569 (but on the hdd ;).
Then I connected it to the LG and did this (exactly same as the USB, but I changet usb to ide)
And BAM, it booted up Debian! I can login as root/root :-)
I had these envs
The whole log is in the attached file...
EDIT
I tried this
EDIT 2
Maybe my next u-boot step is to try these
Does that seem right?
I will test now. First I set all envs, then I try run bootcmd without USB plugged in.

Well, it seems to work. Both with USB plugged in (boots USB) and without USB (boots HDD). Am I ready for this?

raffe,
Excellent works :) so stock u-boot was built with GPT partitions capability.
In the meantime, please get 2 more info:
At serial console u-boot prompt, take a look at the partitions
In Debian, take a look at the partitions
I'll review the log and envs and let you know!

The boot log looks really good!
The envs also look good enough to used as is.
But I would enhance it a bit.
mainlineLinux was set permanenly to yes already, so no need to set it again.
This will make the box reset and try to boot again if something went wrong (instead just hang at the u-boot prompt)
And then test boot it a few times with USB, and without USB, before doing a final saveenv.

raffe,
Cool! everything looks great.
Now you can check if your LEDs control works.
See which LEDs were enumerated by the kernel:
And see /etc/rc.local for example how to control them.
After that it's all system go :)

Thanks for all help bodhi!
This is what I have done so far
I generate new SSH key to make it my own unique rootfs
I made an apt-get update script that tells me if there is any change on initramfs
About leds. What can I do with them? Change their behavior? Or do they not work as standard after Debian install, so we have to fix it?
Examples
My plans when all in Debian is working, is to setup OpenVPN and rsync (or is there anything better) so I can place the LG, for example, at my parents house and from there make automatic backups of documents and photos from my own NAS.

Normally, they are not turned on in either mainline kernel or customed built kernel such as mine. The trigger files are the control file for each LED. So you need to put statements in /etc/rc.local to control them.
For example, you can execute these at command line to see how it works.
To set up flashing USB LED whenever there are USB drive read/write access.
and so on...
To see which values available in the trigger file:
------
Since your box is different from ron's box (N1T1DD1), some the LED GPIO might not be in the DTS yet.
For example, check what LED do you have? is there individual LED for each HDD? is the color for HDD, ODD, USB the same as defined (i.e. white).
If you have individual LED for HDD 1 and 2, then we need to add code to the DTS file to enable that individual control.

I only have one color on my LEDs, white. The settings as standard look like this
So
Looks good, except that odd is used for USB. I will probably never use the DVD drive, so that don't really bother me (as long as I don't think to much about that).
I guess that means all is OK :-D

So
/sys/class/leds/status:white:usb/trigger = [none] /sys/class/leds/status:white:hdd/trigger= [ide-disk2] (and it is flashing) /sys/class/leds/status:white:odd/trigger =[ide-disk1] (this flash when I plug in the USB)

Fan control
Hi again!
After a honey moon period, our relationships is still good. But I have recognized that the LG N1T1 sounds a lot. The fan sound as it is going full speed all the time.
I tried to install lm-sensors and fancontrol and then run
I also tried this
I also read some here
https://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,25783,page=2
https://askubuntu.com/questions/22108/how-to-control-fan-speed
https://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,35975,43074#msg-43074
And tried to look in /sys/devices/ to find any clues as in the threads. But, I don't find anything I think I can use.
What should next step be?
Hi again!
After a honey moon period, our relationships is still good. But I have recognized that the LG N1T1 sounds a lot. The fan sound as it is going full speed all the time.
I tried to install lm-sensors and fancontrol and then run
root@debian:~# pwmconfig # pwmconfig revision 6243 (2014-03-20) This program will search your sensors for pulse width modulation (pwm) controls, and test each one to see if it controls a fan on your motherboard. Note that many motherboards do not have pwm circuitry installed, even if your sensor chip supports pwm. We will attempt to briefly stop each fan using the pwm controls. The program will attempt to restore each fan to full speed after testing. However, it is ** very important ** that you physically verify that the fans have been to full speed after the program has completed. /usr/sbin/pwmconfig: No sensors found! (modprobe sensor modules?)
I also tried this
root@debian:~# sensors-detect # sensors-detect revision 6284 (2015-05-31 14:00:33 +0200) # DMI data unavailable, please consider installing dmidecode 2.7 # or later for better results. # Kernel: 4.12.1-kirkwood-tld-1 armv5tel # Processor: Feroceon 88FR131 rev 1 (v5l) (//) This program will help you determine which kernel modules you need to load to use lm_sensors most effectively. It is generally safe and recommended to accept the default answers to all questions, unless you know what you're doing. Some south bridges, CPUs or memory controllers contain embedded sensors. Do you want to scan for them? This is totally safe. (YES/no): YES modprobe: FATAL: Module cpuid not found in directory /lib/modules/4.12.1-kirkwood-tld-1 Failed to load module cpuid.

No AMD Family 16h power sensors... No Intel digital thermal sensor... No Intel AMB FB-DIMM thermal sensor... No Intel 5500/5520/X58 thermal sensor... No VIA C7 thermal sensor... No VIA Nano thermal sensor... No Lastly, we can probe the I2C/SMBus adapters for connected hardware monitoring devices. This is the most risky part, and while it works reasonably well on most systems, it has been reported to cause trouble on some systems. Do you want to probe the I2C/SMBus adapters now? (YES/no): YES Sorry, no supported PCI bus adapters found. Sorry, no sensors were detected. Either your system has no sensors, or they are not supported, or they are connected to an I2C or SMBus adapter that is not supported. If you find out what chips are on your board, check http://www.lm-sensors.org/wiki/Devices for driver status.

Hi raffe!
Unfortunately there is no easy way to control the fan from Linux. You can see the photos of the board in the third post, and on the first photo in the top left corner you'll see the fan connector. It has no speed sensing (despite the 3 pin connector) and the power is controlled by a MOSFET. Now I don't remember exactly how it is, but the MOSFET is either controlled by the microcontroller on the back or it's hardwired to the power rail. It's definitely not connected to the Kirkwood CPU so we can't control it from Linux. There are possible hacks to make it work, like connecting the MOSFET to a LED and then doing PWM control of the LED (and the fan), but I'm not sure it's worth the effort.
In my configuration, the fan was simply disconnected and removed from the NAS. It operates 24/7 with a 7200 RPM old and loud Seagate HDD. Since Linux runs from a USB stick, I could set up the HDD to power down after 10 minutes idling (this won't work if you have Linux installed on the hard drive), so heat (and noise too) are not a problem for me anymore.
