Thanks for your reply.

I have done it in the same order like you mentioned. But after the
installation, all shares in Windows were gone. So I installed the A
package afterwards again. It seams to work good for two days. I copied
the some data by using the MC from the internal drive to the 3rd
USB-drive, without any problems. On the 3rd day the Linkstation only
blinks and reports that the internal HDD is unformated. But when I
reflash the original firmware 1.15 all data was on the internal HDD.
Very strage I think. Now it is working fine with the original FW. But
I need more than 2 USB drives.

The following steps I do in root shell:
./install_a-version
./install_dualdrive_lspro_V1+2_single_drive_use
./install_addon
./install_a-version

Equipment:
Linkstation Pro V2
1 500 GB drive connected directly to the Linkstation
2 1TB drives connected via an USB-Hub to the Linkstation

Can anybody give me a hint, what I have done wrong ?
Or perhaps can anybody tell me, how I can only change the Linkstation
to support more than 2 USB drives, without changing other things ?

Best Regards

Andreas

I guess I can't help you much, since I did my install from scratch
after upgrading my hard drive.  I created new Windows shares after
installing this, so i didn't lose any existing ones.

I have uploaded my mod firmware for the Live/Pro v1/v2
to another group as this one doesnt have enough space

http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/LinkStation/

If anyone wants it

I am a new Linkstation Pro user. Stock firmware version 1.15 doesn't
spindown the hard drive after a period of inactivity. Has anyone
successfully done this ? If you have, could you give me the steps to do
this. Thanks in advance.

I have an HD-HG250LAN which went belly up. I'm thinking it might have been an
overheat issue and blew something. I came home one day and it was off. Every
attempt to restart it was unsuccessful. I opened it up and found it had some
dust in the vents but it wasn't all that bad.
Now, when I press the power button, the blue light on the front blinks rapidly
and I hear a tick-tick-tick-tick sound. The drive sounds like it wants to spin
up, but then spins back down, same with the fan. The tick sound doesn't appear
to be coming from the drive. It doesn't sound like the drive head click we are
all familiar with. It sounds more electronic.
Does anyone know the output voltages that I should be reading on the power
supply so that I can test that and eliminate (or confirm) that as a problem? I
put a meter to it and got 5v in a couple places but I am not sure what all the
readings should be. I hate to scrap the unit, but at this point I don't know
what else to do. I have it completely apart now and just trying to think of what
to check next. If I pull the drive and were to put it in another system and
clean format it, will I be destroying any possibility of using this as a
linkstation again or is it possible to write the software back to it later? I'm
thinking I would like to rule out the drive by putting it in an external case,
but I am not sure I would even be able to access it without first formatting it.

Any thoughts on this problem would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Scott

Although not specifically related to the older LinkStations, Marvell has
released an interesting product, the Sheeva-based Plug Computer, which has the
Kirkwood processor (6281) in it, which is the same processor that is in the new
LinkStations.  You can actually grab a Dev Kit at a very reasonable price and
attach your own USB drive to it and have everything you need for good
development on a new LinkStation or just on the Plug itself.

Hi Joe.
Thanks for the reply. I am getting 11.63v from the orange wire. It's not yellow
on mine. And 5.17v on the red wire. That is straight off the power supply which
tells me the power supply us fine. However, when I measure at the 4pin power
connector to the HD. I am only getting 5.3v on the orange and 3.24v on the red
plus the voltage continuously drop by .01v about every second. I'm thinking the
problem is on the main board. Could it be a capacitor causing this? There is one
about the size if a dime labeled 5.5v on the board. I'm willing to try whatever
I need to revive it. The data was only backup so I am not worried. Its more that
I can use the 250gb of space and would rather not spend money on a new one.
Thanks again.

No. I am testing the leads that would plug to the drive while disconnected.
I have another enclosure I can throw the drive in. I don't think it's the drive.
I think at this point it's a power issue. I tested the voltage on the other
enclosure and got the same 5+ and 12+ that you did. So I am wondering now if
it's the power supply. Unfortunately the supply not only powers the drive but
the board as well so it would be tricky putting a different supply in place. The
one in the LS is a small module with a number of leads coming off to supply
board power as well as drive power.

If anyone has a linkstation power supply that is no longer needed. I may be
interested I'm it.

Hi

I the above Linkstation with firmware 2.11 running sharing multimedia content
with my PS3. I am using Tversity do do this and it works very well, but need to
keep my PC switched on!

From what I can gather, Twonkymedia will resolve the "keeping PC switched on"
issue, but the set up looks rather scary! I have seen posts referring to turning
off the firewall during installation (which is fine) and enabling Telnet at both
ends. I can't seem to find any reference to telnet in the linkstation
configuration though.

I would like to buy Twonkymedia and give it a go, but was wondering if anyone
knows of a step by step guide for configuring my particular NAS?

Any help/advice will be very much appreciated.

I've had a drive crash and it needs to be replaced. Can anyone point me in
the right direction? Searched the group, but found no results.  Thanks!

Hi,

Have you got the drive in or did you need help with removing the old drive and
fitting the new one?

On the software side, when the new drive was installed (with no
partitions/formatting), the Linkstation booted into recovery mode, and usually
got an IP address from the DHCP server on the router/DHCP agent running on the
network.  You then ran the LS Updater a couple of times on the unit, and it
reinstalled the OS for you.

Thanks.
Andrew.

Hello,

i want to install the 8USB extension on my Linkstation pro, but it seems i am to
stupid to do.

I downloaded the A-Version package, but if i want to install by executing the
script

install_a-version

i got the error message

sh: install_a-version: command not found


How can i run the script?


Can anyone help me please. Thanks in advance


Markus

Hi Markus

In Windows the local directory is always checked for the command and then your
path. In Linux the local directory is never checked only the path.

In order to run a script in Linux that isn't in the path you must explicitly
state where it is. The short hand for the local directory is "./", so run:

sh:./install_a-version

Hi All,

I have a Linkstation HD250. I cannot turn it on again, I am guessing that there
was some power failure and it blew up the internal power supply. I managed to
open the enclosure and rescued the Hard Drive which is a Wester Digital WD2500.
I hooked it up to a USB Drive Adaptor and it started spinning, step one:
sucess...  Step two: I attached the usb to my laptop (Windows Vista) and it
recognized the hard drive, however it does not assign a drive letter and the
storage manager does not allow you to assign a letter.

I have read that this drive may have a disk controler for linux. I do not have a
linux operating system so I found an applicatio called explore2fs that can read
a hard drive however our friends from Buffalo inserted the 'magic number', I
know that Fix ext2 magic would fix this but I have not found a program like that
for my windows vista laptop.

Anybody has any suggestions on how to rescue my data using my Windows laptop?
Should I try to run linux on it just to rescue my data?

Thanks for your help and time,

Gerardo.

Hi Geraldo,

you're best option is probably to get a bootable linux disk, google should bring
up half a dozen options.

I tend to use the latest live version of openSuSE (from www.openuse.org), but
that's just a personal preference.

If I remember correctly only the boot partition has a skewed magic number, the
data partition (no. 3) has a normal magic number and should be mountable without
the fix utility. (in any event the OS runs in RAM and you can install new
software, it just wont be there when you reboot).

If you have another NAS just mount a share and copy the data. There is plenty of
info on the 'net covering basic unix style commands to guide you.

So far, so good.  You might have better luck if you open your PC and
slave the drive.  Might have to tell BIOS there is a new drive.  Oh,
wait, you have a laptop.  The USB will have to do.


Windows is not going to recognize the drive.  Sure, Disk Manager can see
it, but not Explorer or File Manager.  Because the drive is formatted as
whatever Linksys uses (I forget a name and there are choices) and
Windows can read FAT and NTFS.

Get a copy of Ubuntu.  Or some other flavor of 'nix.  Something that can
boot from the CD.  No installing and screwing up of your laptop needed.
   Then just copy all your stuff over to your C:\.  Making a folder
beforehand on the Desktop may make it all easier.

Should work.  Tho I have no idea if the USB stuff will work.

If the disk has a lot of stuff, it  will take a while.

     Not tonight, dear.  I have a modem.

I used Twonkyvision successfully on my Linkstation for several years. After
having to rebuild my Linkstation following a drive failure I installed firefly
rather than twonkyvision. I now have a need to run Twonky again.

I downloaded the NAS installer from Twonky's website (see Link below). It
appears to install ok and I can see the twonkymedia processes running. However,
I cannot open the web page or connect from my media player (BT Internet Radio).
netstat -an shows that the LS is listening on port 9000.

- Have I missed something?
- Does anybody have an older version of Twonky NAS installer? (I'm sorry I

Hello,

I have a LS-CL 650 F/W 1.02 and have searched the wiki site for
details of how to install OpenLink, but couldn't find any details.

Could somebody answers a few questions, please?

1> Is OpenLink compatible with LS-CL 650?

2> Is it PowerPc or MIPSel?

3> Is it possible to install Bit Torrent SDK?

Thanks

Hi,

I need to copy all rsync related files to my IOMEGA 250G NAS. Could somebody
with a PPC based linkstation LS do the following

ldd rsync

then attach rsync and all those .so files it depends on.

Your help will be greatly appreciated.

Hi there,

I just bought a network music player and wanted to install a media server on my
Linkstation. As far as I know, it's the PPC one.
For the installation I need root access. But I have a newer firmware on it. So I
would like to downgrade but I don't have the file.
Could anybody provide me firmware lower or equal to 1.45?

Or is there any other way to get root access?

Cheers,

Eric

As I recall, you can take advantage of the fact that the webroot
directory is completely insecure on these things to execute arbitrary
scripts. I copied /etc/passwd to my main storage directory, edited it to
do something to the root password, and then used a script to copy it
back. Worked well.

Hi there,

I just bought a network music player and wanted to install a media server on my Linkstation. As far as I know, it's the PPC one.
For the installation I need root access. But I have a newer firmware on it. So I would like to downgrade but I don't have the file.
Could anybody provide me firmware lower or equal to 1.45?

Or is there any other way to get root access?

Cheers,

Eric

Hi,

I see on the Buffalo website there are two different versions of the
LS Pro - one old model which seems to have Firmware 1.15, which is the
one I have, and a new model with larger drives with FW 1.20.  Does
anyone know if the firmware is interchangeable (I think I know the
answer already).  I would like to use the Buffalo Bit torrent client.

Thanks.
Andrew.

I have an old PPC Linkstation that is somewhat broken... (search the
archives for my name to see the nature of the problems).  I am cleaning
house, and am willing to give this machine to anyone who will pay the
shipping.

I'm in the US, and I'm guessing that will be about $10-$15 in the US,
maybe $25 overseas.  That's just a guess, so don't hold me to that.

The unit is in physically good condition.  I replaced the fan, and will
include the original fan if it's still in the box.

I am offering it without hard drive, and without any promise that it
will work.  I can accept payment via PayPal.

Is anyone interested?  If so, please reply off-list.

Chris
