-==== Prerequisites ====+You should install the latest busybox package (>= 1.11.1). 
 + 
 +This does **not** work out-of-the-box with RAID.  You will have to know what you're doing to get it working.  See the [[#RAID Reloaded]] section for some pointers. 
 + 
 +For now, the supplied 2.6.25 kernel doesn't work with Rev B1, because the vanilia kernel doesn't support rev B1.  However, you can use a 2.6.12 kernel from the [[http://www.inreto.de/dns323/misc/|firmware-reloaded archive in the misc/]] section of fonz's software repository.
-To boot the ffp kernel using the approach described here, you will need a working [[http://www.inreto.de/dns323/reloaded|reloaded]] module that supports your kernel. The modules included in the ffp-reloaded package (see Installation below) should work with D-Link firmwares up to 1.4 (1.5?) on a DNS-323. 
-You should also install the latest busybox package (>= 1.11.1).

 +NOTE: if you want to use optware afterwards you need to make sure that you are using the same libraries used with the base fun_plug. If you don't you may get (with xmail, for example) a complaint about a missing symbol in6addr_any. To resolve this, do the following:

-==== Notes ====+==== RAID Reloaded ==== 
 +If you don't care about the features in the D-Link firmware, and are confident with using [[http://www.inreto.de/dns323/fun-plug/0.5/|fun-plug 0.5]], you can join the "reloaded" fun using:
-  * The included kernel support kernel-level NFS+  * fonz's [[http://www.inreto.de/dns323/misc/|custom 2.6.12 firmware-reloaded kernel]] 
-  * /mnt/HD_a2 doesn't exist anymore after booting into ffp. You might need to adjust some config files (exports, mediatomb, ...)+  * fun-plug 0.5 installed to ''/mnt/HD_a4'' **or** ''/mnt/HD_b4''  (which correspond to the ``sda4`` and ``sdb4`` partitions) 
 +    * ffp-reloaded from [[http://www.inreto.de/dns323/fun-plug/0.5/extra-packages/ffp-reloaded/|extra-packages]] 
 +    * mdadm. You'll need to run the following **after** reloading: 
 +<code> 
 +    mdadm -A /dev/md0 /dev/sda2 /dev/sdb2 
 +</code>
-==== Todo ====+Be sure to tweak ''/ffp/boot/boot.sh'' to pass ''-m 526'' to ''reload.sh''.  This is necessary when booting the 2.6.12 kernel.  Here is my ''boot.sh'':
-  * There's no fan control yet. +<code> 
- * A start script that selects the proper set of config files for ffp with and without firmware.+   #!/bin/sh 
 +    set -x 
 +    cd /ffp/boot 
 +    ./reload.sh -I root=/dev/sdb4 -m 526 
 +</code>
 +With this setup, I have my Rev B1 DNS-323 reloading into fun-plug 0.5, with RAID1 enabled, and running the NFS **kernel** server.
