  3. Rebuild Required For Wd Mycloud Fw 4

    in Sync for NAS (Network Attached Storage)

    Posted

    Yeah, the issue is that they build new linux kernel with 4k page size instead 64k before or other way round

    There are lots of discussions here http://community.wd.com/t5/WD-My-Cloud/New-FW-4-00-00-upgrade-results/td-p/761154/highlight/true/page/3

     

    So btsync needs to be recompiled with that new non-standard kernel. but because btsync is closed-source software community can't do this by themselves. I just bought my wd own cloud and it is already have firmware version 4 so I'm trying to downgrade at the moment


    unfortunately downgrade hasn't worked for me.

    will have to restore rootfs with firmware version 4


    one more update

    cloud restored version 4 by itself after failed boot from the second RAID partition

     

    so looking forward to seeing recompiled version  for this non-standard kernel WD released. Seems like they put sticks into wheels on purpose by releasing version 4 with non-standard kernel

    We want to support WD new firmware in future, but I cannot claim any plans / ETAs due to project status (beta). Please stay tuned for the news.
