QuoteI tried to extract dtb/dts from my running system/kernel with various utilities (binwalk, extract-dtb, etc) + I tried extract dts/dtb from working system (from /sys, /proc, etc) - but I couldn't find dts/dtb anywhere (maybe my kernel uses an older mechanism than dts/dtb?)

Re: 2024.10 U-Boot Kirkwood - Synology DS211 - 6 weeks ago
Ivan, How did you format this 12TB drive? did you format it as ext3 or ext4? Could you - Use command line parted to wipe the disk - Create a brand new partition - Format it as ext3. - Populate it with the rootfs (or some files in the root folder and /boot). The purpose is to see if you can see the files listed. And boot with this drive inserted in the upper bay. setenv deviceby bodhi - uBoot

Re: Debian on TBS2921 MOI+ - 6 weeks ago

It confirmed what we already done for this box regarding Ethernet. As usual, Wifi is not needed in the DTS.by bodhi - Debian

Re: 2024.10 U-Boot Kirkwood - Synology DS211 - 6 weeks ago
Ivan, > There are still issues with sata 0 and 12TB HDD. Looks like the upper slot is working with the 1TB drive. So for now, you should put the rootfs in that slot and boot with it. The lower slot is apparently not working at all. The bad news about the 12TB drive is it exhibits the old problem with large Seagate drives in u-boot.

Flo, Looks like you missed step 3 in the rootfs creation. https://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,32146 Quote3. Create uImage with DTB appended. I am using the Zyxel NAS326 as an example here.
