Buffalo NAS-Central Forums

Guys,

I Have posted a couple of Tarballs that are the result of the Debian boot strap guide for V and X series here:
http://buffalo.nas-central.org/wiki/Debian_Squeeze_on_%27V%27_and_%27X%27_Series_%28LS-WXL_and_others%29

Tarballs:

You should be able to take a disk out of a stock V or X series, mount it on Linux desktop machine (or live CD) wipe out existing files in boot and rootfs and then extract these tarballs to the relevant partitions.

Worked for me after I killed my root fs trying to upgrade my XHL to Wheezy.

Your mileage may vary, and these are for testing by confident users/developers.

ATM… This may be the quickest way to get from stock to an open debbootsrap image?

Root password is:

Stonie.

stonie, are these files useable on an LS-WVL/E???
I have had NO success getting Squeeze installed on the ls-wvl using ANY process!
I get errors in mounting the rootfs, errors with the roofs, and on and on.

Hi Herb,

These have only been tested on non RAID versions. AFAIK?

I have a WVL sitting here ready to be hacked... no one has written the complete end to end process up... so the trail is a bit difficult to follow...
I will post full details and tarballs once i'm done.

Real work is getting in the way ATM. so can't promise any timeframe.

Cheers,
Stonie.
