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 mby ron - Debian

Den, you should be able to pull it towards yourself (when facing the DVD slot). There are some tabs locking the panel at the bottom and the back (near the fan outlet), so be careful.by ron - Debian

Hi varma! Once you have Debian running (according to my guide for this particular device or another generic guide from the forum) it's up to you to install any web management interface for the NAS. I think OpenMediaVault can be installed on Debian by adding the repos to the apt configuration and installing the omv package.

Hi shwouchk! To create your own uImage, download the 4.4 kernel sources from bodhi and apply the patch from the first post in this thread. Then build it and create an uImage from the zImage. I also enabled USB support, USB mass storage support and IDE/SATA support in the kernel menuconfig so the needed drivers are part of the kernel. That was needed because there was no initrd (or uInitrd) forby ron - Debian

Sorry, I can't help you with that. My unit came with a faulty HDD and without an OS. I booted the original OS from NFS once, but that doesn't count as getting root access :) IMHO having root from the stock OS doesn't simplify the procedure. But in the near future a script could be created that replaces u-boot and then the OS too (just like the scripts for DockStars or PogoPlugs)by ron - Debian
Hello Everyone! Here is the mini (or micro) HOW-TO regarding the installation of Debian Jessie and the 4.6 kernel to an LG N1T1 (by the way: my device has N1T1DD1 printed on its bottom sticker). WARNING: this procedure requires opening the case of the NAS, soldering wires or a pin header to the PCB and using a serial terminal. Okay, the last one is not so dangerous ;) But your warranty willby ron - Debian
Wish it was that simple... :( I'll get some more info posted tonight, including the u-boot environment vars. Basically there is no way to query the state of the button from the u-boot command line. Of course the registers can be read and it is possible to determine the state of the GPIO that is connected to the button (it is wired directly to the Kirkwood SoC), apply some debouncing, etc.by ron - Debian
Hi All! Sorry for the late reply, somehow I didn't get any notifications for this thread :( There are multiple NAS-es made by LG (I'm not sure if they are still selling any of them). For me the easiest way to distinguish them was to download the sources from the LG website and examine the board support files. There are two versions of the source files, called "old" and &by ron - Debian
That's the plan, to make it all available when it's done. Unfortunately I have some serial cable issues and can't upload the compiled binary. Hopefully this will be solved next week when I can resolder all the connectors and cables and get u-boot running.by ron - Debian
QuoteThere is no hurry though, it's unlikely I can get a N1T1 anywhere soon, have only found some N1A1 ffrom the US, that seem to be the same but without the dvd drive. The N1A1 has exactly the same mainboard as the N1T1, maybe only the 2nd SATA connector for the optical drive is missing.

I think it's not enabled by bodhi's kernel config and most definitely wasn't enabled by me. Theoretically it should work, however the usb gadget driver needs investigation to see how it handles the USB voltage detection. The old LG kernel called the gadget initialization by passing the number of the GPIO pins that control the USB voltage output and the voltage input detection. It nby ron - Debian

Hi Everyone! I recently acquired an LG NAS, particularly the N1T1DD1. It is a Kirkwood-based device with 2 SATA ports, with a 1 TB HDD (3.5 inch size) and a slot-in slimline DVD rewriter attached (the latter feature was my main reason for buying :)), 1 USB 2.0 port, 1 gigabit Ethernet, 5 LEDs, 2 buttons, a single SPDT switch and a fan. Originally it runs a slightly modified Debian Lenny distriby ron - Debian
