Hi, I have the last few days read a lot of forum threads all over the web and I'm totally lost how to update the kernel of my chroot squeeze environment.

I have so far successfully installed:
- fun_plug v0.5
- Squeeze (tar ball provided by dlink). My chroot environment

The kernel version seen when booted up in chroot Environment (squeeze) is:

Linux MyHost 2.6.22.18 #23 Wed May 25 15:48:30 CST 2011 armv5tejl GNU/Linux

I would like to update the kernel of chroot environment ONLY. Not the Uboot. Is it possible to only update the kernel for chroot environment? How is it done?
According to this page it sound like it is possible http://jamie.lentin.co.uk/devices/dlink … -firmware/
However when following the guide at the step chroot rootfs response back was kernel to old and I have not managed to upgrade current kernel using other guides

So any guidance would be a Christmas gift for me

Better yet is it possible to get wheezy up running in chroot environment on the DNS-320?

Please note:
I do not have serial cable to follow any other guide where the Uboot is updated.

Hello, Epksaid.

Sorry to be Grinch, but the chroot and the host share the host's kernel, so the chroot distribution must be lower or equal. Therefore, you can't have a Wheezy chroot on a Squeeze host.

Jamie Lentin replaced the whole NAS firmware (including the kernel) with a Linux distribution (Wheezy). In this case, a Wheezy chroot is possible.

My advice is to stick with Squeeze. It's more than enough for home use (torrent via Deluge or transmission & multimedia via miniDLNA)

Good luck!

Hi,
thanks for the reply. Then I tried the impossible for the last two days

What I want is to operate my tellstick duo (www.telldus.com) using DNS-320. I did not succeed to get telldus-core software to communicate with the tellstick on current kernel version. I suspect I need to upgrade the l kernel. I will put new question on forum to see if anyone succeed with this two combos with the kernel version I have.

Hello.

You're welcome. Sorry it didn't end well

Maybe this link can be of some assistance. It's in some scandinavian language and it's about a Raspberry Pi, but Debian is Debian and the commands are pretty clear

Please keep in mind that sudo is not necessary, so just type the commands without using it (sudo apt-get... becomes apt-get..., sudo nano... becomes nano..., etc).

Good luck!

Luckily I'm Swede and was able to read it and also tried it. All commands did work well but the telldusd deamon did not start.

I think the deamon had trouble finding the USB. So I downloaded usbserial and ftdio_sio precompiled modules from
http://nas-tweaks.net/257/precompiled-k … d-dns-325/

from lsmod I could then see that something was connected but still the deamon would not start.

Reading further these drivers is not needed as my kernel is higher http://developer.telldus.com/wiki/TellS … tionSource

But same problem still persist. Tellstick not found.

I will redo the installation one more time and see. I can later on send some trace when staring the telldus deamon and perhaps that would give some hints.

Well... I'm no Debian expert (not even an advanced user, actually), so the problem is beyond my comprehension. All I can say is good luck

If you have to load the modules, I guess you'll also have to create the device node(s):

Code:

mknod /dev/ttyUSB0 c 188 0
mknod /dev/ttyUSB1 c 188 1
mknod /dev/ttyUSB2 c 188 2
mknod /dev/ttyUSB3 c 188 3
mknod /dev/ttyUSB4 c 188 4
