A "last best rootfs"

[WarheadsSE]

I am fairly certain there is an oxnas-revert.sh script mentioned many times in this forum.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('jelabarre59', '&')quot;Unusable" means that, like any system I had set aside for an extended time, I ran an update to bring the code up to date. I didn't research the update beforehand because I had never heard of an architecture becoming *so* unsupported that an update could render a new install unbootable. So now I just want to bring the PPPro back to a state where it can at least perform some minimal functionality, something that would require minimal security updates so I wouldn't break it again.

I followed the wiki install procedures, then unzipped this new tarball to my usb drive, but it still won't boot. the light is solid green, but the MAC is not showing up in my router.

Make sure that the partition table is set as dos compatible. If its not it won't boot

I too am trying to reinstall my PPPro but am not having any luck using oxnas-rootfs-2013-06.tar.gz. The PPPro's light will flash green for about 30 seconds and then turn off. I made sure to set the DOS-compatible flag using fdisk, to no avail. Does anyone have any ideas where to start looking to troubleshoot the problem? Thanks in advance for any and all assistance.

The latest rootfs posted by moonman worked for me. Thanks.

I'm used to the 3.10 version of ALArm. There are some differences in how things work that I haven't been able to figure out:

1) I installed motion, and it seem to have installed ok, but I can't find it. It's not in /usr/bin/motion or /usr/sbin/motion. The config file usually exists in "/etc/motion/motion.conf". Under the latest Oxnas alarm, motion installed ok, but I couldn't find where the config file is.

2) Without systemctl, what is the old way of enabling programs to run on boot? I'd like to enable Motion, Samba, and udevil.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'I') recently got a pro to play with. The rootfs worked for me. I used this command to create the ext3 flash drive:

mkfs.ext3 -L rootfs /dev/sdb1

Bump for help:

1) This version doesn't have systemctl. How do you start programs on boot?

2) If I installed Motion on the latest Arch, it sits in the config file sits in "/etc/motion/motion.conf", and the executable is simply "motion". That doesn't seem to be the case with this version of Arch. Typing in "motion" at the shell tells me there's so such program.
