Yes, saschadd should try both u-boot binaries. Yellowstone is the EX4100. I've run the x_build.sh in their GPL for the EX4100, and looked at the log.

My stock u-boot build has a patch to remove the code that stops USB. The offending code is in bootm.c. Why would they want to do this before starting the kernel? There is no good reason. I guess to prevent people from starting a diffent OS :))

There the magic is ;)

This is expected. We need to find the location of the env on mtd0.

Here is the ARM version for kwboot with the Kevin Smith's patch that hmartin found previously.

I don't know if you can blindly trust Western Digital, but these are the u-boot defaults on my unit:
mtdparts=orion_nand:1M(u-boot),512K(uboot_env),512K(key_store),512K(info),10M(etc),10M(kernel_1),48896K(rootfs1),10M(kernel_2),-(rootfs2)

This also matches the DTB for the EX2U and what was populated on my EX2100:
dev:    size   erasesize  name
mtd0: 00100000 00020000 "u-boot"
mtd1: 00080000 00020000 "uboot_env"
mtd2: 00080000 00020000 "key_store"
mtd3: 00080000 00020000 "info"
mtd4: 00a00000 00020000 "etc"
mtd5: 00a00000 00020000 "kernel_1"
mtd6: 02fc0000 00020000 "rootfs1"
mtd7: 00a00000 00020000 "kernel_2"
mtd8: 02fc0000 00020000 "rootfs2"

It is a much saner definition than the EX4100's.

In your case the /etc/fw_env.config should be:

# MTD device name	Device offset	Env. size 	Flash sector size	Number of sectors
/dev/mtd1 	 	 	0x0000 	 	0x80000 	 	0x20000

And beware of the spaces/tabs in this file, separation should be spaces, but there should be no space at the end of line.

Looks like the handshake is working at first try.

kwboot works but sometimes the output is a bit "defective"

Cool! excellent works hmartin :) I'm going to try this on the NAS326 when I have time.

@saschadd, can you interrupt u-boot and printenv?

Update:

No, it does not look like it's working at all for saschadd.

saschadd,

In your Ex4100 try this /etc/fw_env.config:

# MTD device name	Device offset	Env. size 	Flash sector size	Number of sectors
/dev/mtd0 0x100000 0x80000 0x20000

and
fw_printenv

kwboot is the same between master and 2017.05. So the version I've compiled and attached above should be OK.

Can't interrupt u-boot by pressing 1 like in picocom.

On the slim chance of there might be some differences.

Attached here is the binary built with the exact kwboot source that hmartin used: built with the patch applied to the 2017.05 source tree.

What happens when the handshake occurs?
Any different output that indicates that handshake worked?

UPDATE:
Could it be that the BootROM version 1.73 is not compatible with kwboot?
@hmartin: could you check your BootROM version?

You would see

Sending boot image...
  0 % [......................................................................]
 99 % [...................................]
[Type Ctrl-\ + c to quit]


And then the new u-boot starts.

On the envs subject:

please try the /etc/fw_env.config I've posted above. I am confident that will work.

Okay, will see. But seems that uboot is starting right away.

Should i make a new file /etc/fw_env.config with the info you posted?

You can edit the existing file on the SATA rootfs.

Okay, so i boot to debian and edit that file on the SATA rootfs and try fw_printenv

Correct?

Correct.

It is a non-destructive test. If the location is wrong then you'll get a CRC error.

Tried that and it gave me an CRC as earlier above.

Also tried to copy the fw_env.config from SATA /etc to stock rom /etc
but fw_printenv gives me

-sh: fw_printenv: not found
Re: Debian on WD MyCloud EX 4100

saschadd,

Did you make sure that /etc/fw_env.config has correct spacing and no space at the end?

/dev/mtd0 0x100000 0x80000 0x20000

You could copy the file from your NAS326 and edit it.

Ok. Looks like I've found some better info. Please try:


The content of /etc/fw_env.config

/dev/mtd0 0x500000 0x80000 0x20000


This number does not seem to make sense (it overlaps the uImage) . But the GPL said so! so try.

UPDATE:

@hmartin: could you check your BootROM version?

I have BootROM version 1.73, kwboot does work.

Your log shows that the device booted normally, meaning kwboot did not succeed with the right timing. This happens a lot. I need to try maybe 10 times before it works correctly.

When it does work, you will see output like:
Sending boot message. Please reboot the target...-�$�"Ufw�$�"U����$
Dfw�$�"U�\�$�"U����$�DUf�$�"Uw��"U����$4"U���$�"Uw�$�"U���$�DUf|fD�&T���$�"U�E�$�"Df3DD�DU�E7$�"U����$4"U���$�"U�E�4"U�/7@� ��$DUw�$�"U����$�DUff�$�"D��fD$U��
Sending boot image...
  0 % [......................................................................]
  1 % [..

A lot of patience and resetting of the device is required.

kwboot will always output the console of the device, so if you do NOT see "Sending boot image..." followed by maybe a minute of transferring, then you're seeing the default u-boot on NAND loading and executing. It's true, you cannot interrupt u-boot by pressing 1, because kwboot is only printing the output (because it's still trying to transmit the handshake).

If you do not see the "Sending boot image" text, then you need to power cycle the EX4100 and try to kwboot again (meaning ctrl+c kwboot and run it again before re-applying power to the EX4100).

Ignore the garbage before "Sending boot image" this is random and will be different each time you attempt.

Thanks for the info. Never used kwboot yet so i didnt know.

So everytime if there is no handshake
ctrl-c to end kwboot
power off nas
start kwboot
power on nas

saschadd,

Congrats:) you are running my patched uboot image loaded by kwboot!

Now please modify the post to describe:

1. which kwboot binary you are using.
2. how many time you were trying until this good run
3. can you repeat this? and describe the sequence.
4. execute printenv output at the prompt and post output.

This could take a while ;-)

I suspect the successful sequence will be:

So everytime if there is no handshake
ctrl-c to end kwboot
power off nas
start kwboot
power on nas

The timing parameters are still not right. I don't know if there is a better way, I have not found more reliable delay parameters.
