mdgm and I have decided that its time to lock this thread. So please do post any new OS6 on Legacy issues on their own threads.

IMO, any homebrew or 'jailbroken' alt-os would need to be able to make it dead easy for the 'not-as-technical' people to switch to (and back to stock), ideally I would think it better to leave the stock flash alone and either boot from usb key or straight from disks.
I realize that the majority of the users here, and probably a lot of nas users in general, are far more technically savy than a typical consumer, but no doubt there is a ton of these technical users that would not necessarily want something that is more time consuming to use/configure/upgrade than what raidiator provides.
I guess what I am thinking of, is the "DD-WRT" equivalent for readynas. Something that provides a much more update/standard system and flexibility, but without necessarily requiring a bunch more (or different) technical knowledge.
