OS6 now works on x86 Legacy WARNING: NO NTGR SUPPORT!
Update: It is now unofficially possible using NTGR images to update legacy hardware to os6.X See Post #3, for directions to install 6.2.1 on x86 Ultra and Pro Models. (ARM NOT SUPPORTED by this OS) ...
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.
Hey there ReadyNAS Gurus,
So here's the situation: On Saturday some knuckle-head struck a utility pole near our building and knocked out power and Internet for roughly seven (7) hours. After the power came back on I was tasked with the arduous job of bringing the network back online. All went pretty smoothly with the exception of two things. . .
1.) A NETGEAR switch model GS724T died (failed internal power supply)
1a.) Fortunately we had some spares (four spares, three being Gigabit and Jumbo Frame capable, two of which were bad out of the box :-x ). . .
1b.) . . .anyway, the last remaining suitable switch was a NETGEAR GS748T. I got it working and configured and all seemed to be well when I noticed that one of the ports was blinking yellow instead of green, indicating that the port was operating at only 100Mb (vice Gigabit)
1c.) That port happened to one of the NIC's of a ReadyNAS Pro 6 running OS6
2.) This ReadyNAS Pro 6 had network connectivity at this time, but the upper Ethernet Port was running at a slower speed that the other. I double checked the switch configuration to ensure that 1000Mbps was enabled on that port, and it was
2a.) I logged into the Web GUI of the ReadyNAS --> clicked on the Network Tab --> Unbonded and Rebonded the two NIC's --> clicked the apply button and then. . .
2b.) . . .TOTAL LOSS OF NETWORK CONNECTIVITY !!!
2c.) I've tried rebooting the NAS, connecting it to a different switch, single NIC plugged in, etc. an still no sign of life on the network :(
So, I think I need to do some sort of Linux command line magic, but I have no idea how to go about it.
HELP please!
