this is from the "nand" (hope it's correct) / # cat /etc/fw_env.config # Configuration file for fw_(printenv/saveenv) utility. # Up to two entries are valid, in this case the redundand # environment sector is assumed present. # Notice, that the "Number of sectors" is ignored on NOR. # MTD device name Device offset Env. size Flash sector size

i've reached step 9 of the uboot guide.. my printenv seems a bit redundant... /mnt/boot/dts # fw_printenv bootargs=console=ttyS0,115200 mtdparts=nand_mtd:0x100000(uboot),0x80000(uboot_env),0x80000(key_store),0x80000(info),0xA00000(etc),0xA00000(kernel_1),0x2FC0000(rootfs1),0xA00000(kernel_2),0x2FC0000(rootfs2) root=/dev/nfs rw init=/init bootcmd=nand read.e 0x2000000 $(kernel_addr) 0x

hi, i've followed your instructions, put the debian system (i didn't get the linux file) where it should be, i've gone one with the uboot procedure, but as i checked w_env.config i noticed that's not mtd0 / # cat /etc/fw_env.config # Configuration file for fw_(printenv/saveenv) utility. # Up to two entries are valid, in this case the redundand # environment sector is

QuoteBodhi However, you could have used the NAND dump binary I provided in the u-boot installation thread. as i said before i'm soooooo noooob, there's so much info scattered around, but no organic guide.... however, i've somehow managed to run the nanddump from your package: i've taken a usb drive, partitioned it in two: the first partition is a fat32 first partition

QuoteBodhi No need to. Just download kwboot from my uboot release post if you connect serial console using ARM Linux box. Or use davygravy built 64 bit kwboot for x86 if your Linux console is x86. Try it with the 2017.07-tld-1 uboot for Goflex Net. Wel... i'm running an nsa325 v2, thus it should be an arm.. should i go for the Goflex as well? i've tried to run nudump with the n

Edit: i had to cross the rx and the tx cable now, should i worry: Bad block at 0xc80000 in erase block from 0xc80000 will be skipped this was given me from the boot Edit 2: i made some more experiments i've plugged the hd somehow and now i've checked for bad sectors, and this is the answer: / # dmesg | grep -i 'bad' Scanning device for bad blocks Bad eraseblock

Thank you very much bodhi: that was the reference i was missing, i've had only a quick read so far, and i'll do it better as i get home again is the backup made through the "cp" command, besides the "fw_printenv > current_envs.txt"?

nsa 325v2 vs debian noob questions - 7 years ago

Hiya, i own a nsa 325v2 and would like to install debian on it, just i have some questions i cannot seem to find the answer anywhere, so if there's some sort of noob guide i've missed, please gimme the link. So.. first of all i've read this from nas central and this from Buttzy10169: so if i have understood it well the procedure needs to modify the inborn boot manager, right?
