NSA310 original u-boot request

Hello! I'm looking for an original u-boot for nsa310. I didn't make a backup and I want to go back to stock. Pls help.

I found this u-boot:
https://downloads.lede-project.org/snapshots/targets/kirkwood/generic/u-boot-nsa310/
but it's abnormally big. It should has 512KB, but those from a link 606KB. I'm afraid to use that u-boot.

That's definitely not stock u-boot.

Is there a reason you want to go back to stock? to sell the box, or to start fresh?

to sell. I try to sell with debian system but nobody want to buy. I know debian is much better then stock firmware.

I mean I tried.

I should have a copy of the original u-boot for NSA310. Let me know if it is still relevant.

Hello, I found this thread through Google. Looking for an original uboot for NSA310. Does anyone have copies? Unfortunately, my one was lost somewhere. greetings

There are multiple versions of the NSA310, so it would be helpful if you describe the device you have. Can you identify which processor it contains? Also can you identify the Ethernet chip? This would help identify exactly which NSA310 you have and which u-boot version is required.

Hello,

Thank you for your answer. As for the processor, I can read from it: "88F6-8IA2 ; N3W6230.3 ; 1109 A1E ; TW ; 88F6281-A1 ; C120"

Description of the NAND memory: "K9F1G08U0D"

The network card worked on the kernel r8169 module but from what I associate it is 8168 chip, but I can be wrong. Unfortunately, it cannot be read physically.

The device worked with the DTB file "kirkwood-nsa310b-lmsensor-redusbled".

Below is the ENV which seems to have been a factory:

This is enough information for me to determine that you have a different version of the NSA310 than I. Mine is a NSA310S which has the 88F6702 processor and Marvell Ethernet, so my u-boot backup likely won't be helpful.

Ray

Thank you for your answer. Or maybe someone else has a stock uboot?

JarekPL,

I don't have this stock u-boot. But I will see if I can contact anders.

I sold mine with openwrt - There is nice www also polish version and many services can be easily install

If you still require stock u-boot for the NSA310 I have attached a compressed tar file containing mtd0.img and mtd1.img from a recently acquired NSA310 with 1.2 GHz Marvell 88F6281 processor and the Realtek Ethernet. I have successfully tested restoring from the mtd0.img after using uboot.2017.07-tld-1.nsa310.mtd0.kwb

Ray

I uploaded mtd0.img , and it works.

But I don't know how to upload 470AFK3C0.BIN

fatload usb 0 0x2000000 470AFK3C0.BIN

it works, but what next ?

porky,

Please be more specific. I don't understand your question. What are you trying to do?

I want to upload original uboot and firmware.
I have already uploaded the orginal uboot and it works.
I am already here
http://martin.topholm.eu/blog/2013/working-with-the-zyxel-nsa310/#flashing-from-u-boot

But where should i get bin2ram and fw_unpack ?

We are not using that procedure here.

===========

We are mainly interested in running Debian on this box. If you have serial console then you can load the new u-boot image over UART with kwboot to boot the box, and then boot into USB Debian rootfs.

I've just posted this to help another user:

https://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,110409,117629#msg-117629

If you only want to restore stock u-boot so you can run stock FW, I can also help you with that, but I would prefer you try running kwboot to load new u-boot and run Debian.

Yes, I have already installed openWRT.
I remind you that I have nsa310 and you writing about nsa320.
Can you unpack it for me, because I can not?
I think I need the original NSA3XX system.

Zyxel NAS 310/320/325... have the same stock uboot and similar FW.


> Can you unpack it for me, because I can not?

Sorry no. Perhaps other users who have done this can help you.

Can someone help unzip it?

https://www.zyxel.ch/de/support/download/200118_1

Run command to extract flash images, and make sure the return value ($?) is 4:
bin2ram little /e-data/1234/470AFK3C0.BIN /e-data/1234/tlv.bin; echo $?
5. Run command to unpack flash images, and make sure the return value ($?) is 0:
fw_unpack -C /e-data/1234 -i /e-data/1234/tlv.bin; echo $?

I don't have bin2ram and fw_unpack

Thank you

Maybe it will be useful for someone.
Is all, openWrt and original firmware.

Hi Porky,
Did you have any luck going back to stock firmware?.. I have just been given one of these boxes and cannot get the hdd to mount properly in openwWrt, i wanted to see what the stock firmware was like but not to sure how to flash it back.

Maybe it will be easier to check what is wrong with openwrt?

Hi kofec, sorry my english is not very good.
The problem i am having with openwrt is when trying to network share a 500gb hdd i am not able to write to it, it will allow me to create folders but wont let me copy anything over, it just freezes. i have tried ext4,ntfs and still having the same issues. I`m not very good on linux so i`ve just been reading up and trying different suggestions. I have mounted the hdd as /mnt/sda1/files, but every time i write to it it copies 2-3mb then freezes.

First I will try ext4 as format for disk. Second thing is to use winscp to put something on this disk. If someting fail please provide "logread".

Thank you for the help, I have had to go to work I will try what you have suggested as soon as I get back.

Quick update i`ve managed to get the samba shares working now, i just needed to tick Force synchronous I/O.
thank you for your help.
