If you meant my response - then that was for the x64 4.2 NAS, not the duo v1.

Mounting Sparc-based ReadyNAS Drives in x86-based Linux
(1) sudo su
(2) apt-get install fuseext2
(3) apt-get install lvm2
(4) modprobe fuse
(5) vgscan
(6) vgchange -ay c
(7) fuseext2 -o ro -o sync_read /dev/c/c /mntThat’s it!!!
You can now see the mounted files in the /mnt directoryAlternative Method
If you are trying to recover data from a Duo (or from a disk with only 1 or 2 disks in the array), then you may be able to recover the data using the following method:
- Connect your faulty disk to a Windows PC using a SATA to USB cable
- Download, install & run the free software R-linux ( https://www.r-studio.com/free-linux-recovery/ )
- Copy the recovered data from the faulty disk
The alternative method only works with the main disk (usually disk 1), not the parity disk. There is a linux version of R-Linux, which you could also try.
Note I did make some edits to the original blog post.
Thank you for this! I am at work today but will try this when I get home. To test with, I will try to the read only flags first. Ultimately I will want to copy everything off of that drive but will save that until I get a new NAS setup and ready. Thanks again!
