Hi guys,
very interesting topic since i have the same problem, but it's not clear to me what are the steps to make the system work (and yes, i know nothing about linux and the Readynas box)

What are the missing steps to make it work?
I read about "adding correct folder tree for foo2zjs firmwares" (in the Smask post) but i have no idea how to do it. It's something that i should do at this point or before installing the add-on?
