OS6 now works on x86 Legacy WARNING: NO NTGR SUPPORT!

its just split in two archives now instead of putting both in one zip

I thought it's one for older nas x86 and arm etc.

I wish it was, it would be nice to have a new OS fully support.

no x86 = 3xx and 5xx series while arm = 1xx series and the 2120

Hi all.

I am trying to make a VMware image for easier testing, but syslinux just gives me "loading aborted".
Seems like perhaps Netgear has modified syslinux to prevent them from being booted on other HW?
Anyone tried a similar experiment?

They use an old version of syslinux, v3.61 I believe. The newer 4.0.x didn't work with it last I tried.

If you 'dd' your boot flash, and connect it as a VMDK, it should work.

Hi.

As I mentioned earlier, my PRO 2 gets disconnected from the network a lot.
Each time I get a system log like below.

Earlier I wold be reassigned with a default address like 169.254.26.236 (which means the the NAS can't connect to DHCP afaik).
I would then have to reboot to get connected again.

So I used the web interface to set eth0 to use a static IP.
This works insofar that I get back online immediately since it just reassigns the original static 192.168.1.108 address. No reboot needed, and I'm back online in 3-6 seconds.

But I do get disconnected a lot. Three times today.

I don't know if it's' my WNDR4500 that has hiccups, or if it's the OS6/PRO2 combination that causes it.
But if anyone else has this problem, try assigning a static IP.

It is syslinux 3.31. It has been modified, but I cannot find it in the open source that is published.
Only reference is in \buildroot-2012.11.1\boot\syslinux

Seems like Netgear "forgot" to publish the source...

Hi,

did you try a diffrent Maximum Transmission Unit? Sometimes mtu 9000 (the maximum afaik) makes proplems with diffrent hardware... give it a try und share your expirience please! :D

Best regards,

Martin
