unbrick NSA310 and set up environement
August 02, 2023 02:36PM
Hi,

From a wrong flashing process I was able to unbrick my NSA310 (with another Linux box, loading uboot.kwb via kwboot, UART module cable)

I have the console of NSA310> and I am able to load the uboot.kwb, but unable to set up the environment properly (using these files: uboot.2017.07-tld-1.nsa310.mtd0.kwb uboot.kwb
uboot.2016.05-tld-1.environment.img uboot.img
)

is that possible to completely clear the environment from nand and setup the proper environment?
I only access to preboot NSA310> console now.

I have tried to load environment image following this guide, but after loading environment image and doing a reset, my NAS is 'bricked' again, no response (I need to do a kwboot image transfer again via UART) just all the front LEDs are red.

thanks in advance
Peter

Hi,
meanwhile I have managed to unbrick the device, so at least uboot works.
Created a Debian image (5.2.9) using this guide.

The NAS now is trying to boot from the usb Debian, but hangs:

I suspect it is almost done, just need some change in environment.

disconnect all the hard drives, only connect the usb boot drive. (with kernel and root file system)

kwboot

change the "set_bootargs=setenv bootargs console=ttyS0,115200 root=LABEL=rootfs rootdelay=10 $mtdparts $custom_params" to

set_bootargs=setenv bootargs console=ttyS0,115200 root=/dev/sda1 rootdelay=10 $mtdparts $custom_params

try boot it again

changed the environment values, but same hang at boot:

What David said above was

- kwboot. Interrupt serial console and,

setenv set_bootargs 'setenv bootargs console=ttyS0,115200 root=/dev/sda1 rootdelay=10 $mtdparts $custom_params'

and then boot
boot

After you've booted into Debian. Check your rootfs label, make sure it is rootfs

e2label /dev/sda1
if it is not, set it

e2label /dev/sda1 rootfs
sync
And reboot. Let it boot without interuption.

Peter,

There are a few different possible reasons for this booting problem.

Please post the entire serial boot log (from u-boot banner until the kernel panic).

Peter,

Your rootfs uImage was set up to boot with the DTB embbeded (Step 4)

Now you are running the new uboot 2017.07, so you also need to adjust your rootfs to boot with separated DTB.

Mount your USB rootfs on another Linux box, and restore the original uImage. Assuming it is mounted at /media/sdb1

Reverse uImage to the original.

cd /media/sdb1/boot
cp -a uImage uImage.with_nsa310_dtb
cp -a uImage.orig uImage
sync

After that, unmount the USB rootfs and bring it back to the NSA310 and boot again.

it is solved kernel panic, but still hangs the boot at 'loading essential drivers' stage...

Peter,

Quite possible that either:

1. Since you had a few kernel panics and had to turn off power, the rootfs might have file system errors. Try mounting the USB rootfs on another Linux box and check for error. Assuming the USB drive is assigned /dev/sdb,

e2fsck /dev/sdb1

OR

2. The rootfs was not created properly.

Installation:

Installation can be done on any Linux box, with a fresh USB drive (SD card or HDD would work fine too).

Note: all steps below must be done while logging in as root user (not sudo). If you are not the root user then don't continue, because the rootfs will not work.

1. Format a new USB drive with a single Ext3 partition, and label it rootfs.

Make sure the above instruction was followed closely.

Hi,
sorry for reply just for a long time, had no time to try fixing.

I have recreated rootfs / USB drive based on your instructions, but this time it has problems with the fdt image itself:

## Flattened Device Tree from Legacy Image at 01c00000
   Image Name:   Linux-5.13.6-kirkwood-tld-1
   Created:      2023-09-04  12:50:18 UTC
   Image Type:   ARM Linux Kernel Image (uncompressed)
   Data Size:    4976184 Bytes = 4.7 MiB
   Load Address: 00008000
   Entry Point:  00008000
   Verifying Checksum ... OK
ERROR: uImage is not a fdt - must RESET the board to recover.
Could not find a valid device tree
resetting ...


what did I wrong?

thanks

Peter,

1. The rootfs tarball should be extracted as is. There is no change needed to boot with the new u-boot (don't do Step 4).

2. If you did number 1 correctly, then there is something wrong with the u-boot envs. Power up let it boot and post the entire serial console log here.
