Update check and download script

Hi bhodi and community! I am using the kirkwood kernels for some years and want to say thanks by contributing a script I wrote. It automates the step of checking the forum post for a new update and downloading the kernel archive, while staying as near as possible to the download instructions. Usual disclaimer: Use it at your own risk! That said it worked well for me for some time and is quite stable. The script reads the newest version and downloads the archive to /boot, unless the running kernel is already at that version or the file has already been downloaded. If there is a newer kernel t ..read more

If you created the rootfs correctly then it will boot without problem. Use Debian-6.5.7-kirkwood-tld-1-rootfs-bodhi.tar.bz2 and follow the instruction closely. Don't substitute any command with what you think is equivalent. Things like being root and use a single Ext3 partition are important. > > Then I went for something smaller and simpler??? > Bodhi`s Debian 4.14.180 No need ..read more

Pogoplug V4 Debian 4.14 booting problem

I have a Pogoplug V4 A3 01 with serial port, with very recent uBoot and a running OpenWRT in flash. I have now spent a very long time building a boot USB for Debian following the countless recipes posted on this forum. I also have a very old Raspberry running current Debian which I use for some of the building, but it is a different architecture frm the Pogo. First I spent a long time configuring a recent build 6.7.5 (or was it 6.5.7 or 7.6.5????). The Pogo did boot, but stopped with a kernel panic. Then I went for something smaller and simpler???

Hey there! I got this beauty in my home network rack and recently i revived it by metarepo and entware samba-replacement. Now it is still okay but performance on bulk write/read went down a lot. As i am planning to use the device to let my son edit video (HD only :)) on/supported by it i want to get the best possible performance. I will install debian on the nas sooner or later but if it would improve performance that would put it up on my prio list. Will your awesome debian kernel handle smb2 better or is that simply the limited kirkwood cpu? The longterm plan is to either debian the nsa32 ..read more

Otherwise, you can exploit the new kernel patch allowing ledtrig-gpio (as discussed on https://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,136831) and compile a dts as follow: sata1-red-led { //label = "wdmcmg2:red:hdd1"; color = <LED_COLOR_ID_RED>; function = LED_FUNCTION_DISK_ACTIVITY; function-enumerator = <1>; gpios = <&gpio1 11 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>; linux,default-trigger = "ide-disk1"; panic-indicator; }; sata2-red-led { //label = "wdmcmg2:red:hdd2"; color = <LED_COLOR_ID_RED>; function = LED_FUNCTION_DISK_ACTIVITY; function-enumerator = <2>; gpios = <&gpio1 20 GPIO ..read more

After giving some thought to the issue, there are a few thigs to go over or ask. As per the Toshiba website, only their consumer and surveillance drives have SMR. This is an enterprise drive and there is no indication that I could find that this drive has SMR. However, just to be sure I ran hdparm and according to a web posting I found, all drives that use SMR have a feature called 'TRIM' root@debian:~# hdparm -I /dev/sda | grep TRIM root@debian:~# So if it comes back blank, then is most likely does not have SMR. The decision to use XFS was based on several writeups in web sites indicati ..read more

@Bodhi I decided to start over and make several changes. The Goflex will not recognize any of the newer USB sticks that I have, so I was using a very old 4GB Kingston DataTraveler. That thumb drive has seen over 15 years of use so it seemed a bit slow. Installed a fresh rootfs on the first partition of the 6TB drive, making it a total of 6GB Formatted the second partition using XFS instead of NTFS - installed xfsprogs The hdparm speed test for the drive shows slightly faster now that it is using XFS instead of NTFS. root@debian:/etc# hdparm -tT /dev/sda /dev/sda: Timing cached reads ..read more
