Thank you for the hints The bios seems to be an older version of the same type # cat /sys/class/dmi/id/bios_version M.012 # cat /sys/class/dmi/id/bios_vendor INSYDE Corp. Also the efivars at /sys/firmware/efi/vars/ seem to look normal and indicate to be able to boot from USB, DVD or Network. But I can't interpret all the data values correcty.

I finally took the time to attach the DS415+ to UART (3 pins) serial myself, but the farthest I came was interruptinby Radm - Debian
Hello, I currently have a DS415+ laying around (x86_64, Intel Atom C2538) and was asking myself the same question. Would be quite useful running debian on it and adding functionality, to use it for example as a "better" backup server (and mainly for full disk encryption, which is not yet supported by DSM). Is the missing device tree still a reason for the project to be abandoned oby Radm - Debian
After playing a bit around and reading even more posts, some good news: I've managed to flash stock uboot 1.1.4 which supports the usb command and to boot into debian. In case anyone needs the steps, this is how I've done it: This implies you have some drives in the nas and a working installation of the default linux "distro" from iomega (the default one with the web-interfby Radm - Debian
So setenv worked now, but I'm still experiencing the "Unknown command 'usb' - try 'help'" message after trying to boot. Might there be missing something, could it be usb not being created correctly or do you by occasion see anything wrong in the log? Does the partition table type matter on the usb stick (msdos for me)? Here's the serial output from the bby Radm - Debian
Thanks for the fast response! Only thing not working so far is when setting the usb_boot env; it's not possible to save it: Marvell>> setenv usb_boot 'mw 0x800000 0 1; run load_uimage; if run load_uinitrd; then bootm 0x800000 0x2100000; else bootm 0x800000; fi' ** Too many args (max. 16) ** Any workaround? Edit: Oh nvm I should have rtfm. Will try again as described inby Radm - Debian
First of all, thanks for all of the research done for giving new life to the ix4 box. I've one of these laying around myself and knowing it's possible to run debian on it would be a nice opportunity to set it up as a backup server with better disk management. But now having read all of the related posts here and tried out many described ways, I still couldn't manage to boot into deby Radm - Debian
