NewCS on ReadyNAS DUO!

nevermind my last post! problem solved!
:roll:

Hi all,

I have successfully installed NewCS with a Smargo Smartreader - and it's running fine.

But is it possible to make a script so NewCS startup automatically at bootup? Now I have to insmod the drivers and start NewCS manually everytime i boot the NAS.

Hope someone brighter than me can post a solution.

Thanks in advance

regards rosens

we call that an add-on :)

As already stated by super-poussin, you can always make an addon of your project. If you don't want to go through all the steps neccessary, the easy solution would be to create a startup script like for example "00_newcs.sh" and put it in the /var/spool/frontview/boot/ directory. Make sure the script is owned by admin (by doing a "chown admin:admin 00_newcs.sh"). This script will get executed on every startup.

Likewise, if you need to shut down some drivers/daemons when powering down the ReadyNAS, you can put another script in /var/spool/frontview/shutdown. The same rules as above apply.

Thanks Stefan,

So if I make a script with the lines:

insmod /usr/local/bin/newcs/usbserial.ko
insmod /usr/local/bin/newcs/ftdi_sio.ko
/usr/local/bin/newcs/./newcs -c newcs.xml

and do as you say - it should do the trick?

when you do a startup script , you need to provide full path to executable :)

/sbin/insmod /usr/local/bin/newcs/usbserial.ko /sbin/insmod /usr/local/bin/newcs/ftdi_sio.ko /usr/local/bin/newcs/newcs -c newcs.xml

Cool thanks! :D

The script should contain these lines:

/sbin/insmod /usr/local/bin/newcs/usbserial.ko
/sbin/insmod /usr/local/bin/newcs/ftdi_sio.ko
/usr/local/bin/newcs/newcs -c /usr/local/bin/newcs/newcs.xml

I know it's a silly question but did you try:

/usr/local/bin/newcs -c /full/path/to/newcs.xml 

already?

8) Yep - thanks again Stefan!

It starts up fine with that syntax.

You're welcome ;)
Mind if I ask you to *not* edit your posts in such a way that comments following your post become "out of context"? <beg>
