Unfortunately no one can be told what fun_plug is - you have to see it for yourself.

2.

Copy the two extracted files linux.tar and fun_plug to the root directory of your first DNS-323 volume
4.
Reboot the DNS-323

The DNS-323 is going to work for several minutes now and finally reboots

The DNS-323 automatically boots into Debian and runs the SSH - daemon"
If i install this way, will it format my hdd during the install?

if you read the text just over what you pasted you will see
The easiest way to get a full Debian environment ist to use DebNAS. It provides a full base system with SSH enabled by default and boots automatically. As it uses chroot, it is not going to harm your device and can be uninstalled by simply deleting one file (“fun_plug”) and one folder (“linux”) from your first volume.

Ok i take that as youre saying it doesnt. But i cant really see anything except how you uninstall it, nothing about it not formatting the hdd.

Does the debian installation have to be on volume 1?

I don't know for sure, but I would imagine that you can change things in the fun_plug to point to something that lives on volume 2. You would probably have to make a bunch of trivial changes there, but, once you chroot, you only see things that are mounted within that subtree. That means that the rest of the stuff can't possibly depend on where it's installed.
