NAS-Central & Foonas Weblog

Today we added a new forum at the NAS-Central Buffalo Forums for Kirkwood based devices such as the LS-CHL V2 and the LS-XHL. Also there is a new sub-forum for the MV78100 based Terastation III.

We have moved some posts into these new areas to keep things tidy!

Early information about the hardware of the new Linkstation Quad is available here at the Buffalo forum.

A vanilla Linux kernel and Genlink how-to is available at the Buffalo wiki – see this forum post at the Buffalo forum for information and discussion.

See this post in the Buffalo forums – Optware feeds are confirmed as working for the LS-LGL and LS-HGL – there is an easy fix for the DNS issues.

A Debian rootfs for testing/general use is now available – see this topic in the Buffalo forums for more info on the LS Pro and this article in the Buffalo wiki for the Kurobox Pro.

A forum member has kindly posted instructions on how-to install Debian Lenny to the TS Pro II here in the buffalo forums.

A quick analysis of the hardware/software running on the new Linkstation Mini is up here in the Buffalo forums. As you might expect this is another Marvell Orion based NAS and fortunately acp_commander still works!

Internal and external up close pictures and discussion of the Kurobox Slim are up here at the Buffalo forum.

See the YouTube video Enable Debugmode in lsupdater.exe for information on how to do this.

This utility works for all the Buffalo machines in the current arm9 range (LS Pro v1/v2 , LS Live v1/v2, Tera Pro v2, Tera Live).
