Netgear stora MS-2000 + OpenWrt 18.06.4

Installing and Using OpenWrt
1

Hello dear OpenWrt users!

I want to run OpenWrt on my Netgear Stora MS-2000. Officially, it is not supported in buildroot. But similar devices are supported, for example, Seagate Goflex Home.

The configuration for compiling the U-boot for Netgear Stora is also not in the u-boot mainline repository. Therefore, I found an already compiled u-boot from Bodhi.
Using kwboot, I was able to check this u-boot and record it in NAND.
Fixed typos in environments, for example, dtb_file '/boot/dts/kirkwood-netgear_stora_ms2000' -> dtb_file '/boot/dts/kirkwood-netgear_stora_ms2000.dtb'
I added my ip and serverip in environments.

According to the instructions for the Seagate Goflex Home, I recorded the openwrt:

tftpboot openwrt.bin
nand erase.part kernel
nand write 0x800000 kernel 0x3c0000

I can not start openwrt. I do not know what to write in the parameter bootcmd.
Bodhi has all the parameters for booting from usb, and I want to boot from NAND.

Generally you'd tftp an initramd version of OpenWrt and boot it from RAM. Then use the sysupgrade command in OpenWrt to write the sysupgrade version to flash, and then you have a regular bootable install. Modifying the bootloader parameters should not be necessary.

3 
bootdev=usb
device=0:1

so....

load $bootdev $device $load_initrd_addr /boot/uInitrd
load $bootdev $device $load_uimage_addr /boot/uImage
load $bootdev $device $load_dtb_addr /boot/dts/kirkwood-netgear_stora_ms2000.dtb

you can try manually loading from mtd...

load DEV DEVICE ADDR FILENAME ( don't think there is an initrd )
bootm $load_uimage_addr $load_initrd_addr $load_dtb_addr
( try something like this for no initrd )
bootm $load_uimage_addr - $load_dtb_addr

Best to enter manual addresses while you get the hang of it.... Assuming the files are in the right place ... then the rest is just finding the right command syntax....

Have you verified you can read the files off mtd with load?

Thanks for your advice! I have moved on, but the starting stops.
Do I understand correctly that this image is not suitable for Netgear Stora?
Or is it something else?

Here are the modified options in u-boot environments:

set_bootargs=setenv bootargs console=ttyS0,115200 root=LABEL=rootfs rootdelay=10 $mtdparts $custom_params
bootcmd=run set_bootargs; run bootcmd_exec; reset
bootcmd_exec=run load_uimage; run load_dtb; bootm $load_uimage_addr - $load_dtb_addr
load_dtb=echo loading DTB $dtb_file ...; tftp $load_dtb_addr kirkwood-netgear_stora_ms2000.dtb
load_dtb_addr=0x1c00000
load_uimage=echo loading uImage ...; tftpboot initramfs
load_uimage_addr=0x800000

Your the pioneer... you tell us :wink: Nice to see the kernel firing up! Try higher debug levels...

Although you loaded the "on-device" tree blob into memory via uboot... i doubt an initramfs will honour this as it has one pre appended within itself. Even if it did... it's format is likely not what 4.14 expects.... You have to edit the .dts within the buildroot... ( assuming you have not edited it already )....

Not alot of junk to investigate in reverse tho'

Hello Energoblock,

Do you still have Netgear Stora? Can you post original bootlog and U-Boot environment variables?

Energoblock,

Thank you. I am trying to help another Stora owner to unbrick his device. My stora alerady runs flashed bootloader so we were looking for stock U-Boot owner.

Hi,
I have only changed to have ssh access. If not private data will be required, probabbly I could help you. I am now checking what updates I have at my places. Currently only 5044, small update almost nothing, requires 5043.

10

I want asked if there are any updates for this topic.
I also found my Stora in the attic. I installed the latest u-boot und also the Kirkwood Debian. But need a plugged USB stick to run the OS. OpenWrt will fit into the NAND...

Hello, BigDi!
Someone added Netgear Stora support to Openwrt. I found this on the wiki page: https://openwrt.org/inbox/toh/netgear/netgear_stora
According to this instruction, I have already installed openwt on 2 Netgear Stora. Everything works stably, the firmware is completely located in NAND.

@Energoblock I tried to compile it by myself but I get a lot of errors. Is it possible that you can give me your image?

13

The archive contains all the necessary files: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1etFczwc1SyPyY9jVCjNe2wuV1LKjXqG5/view?usp=sharing

You can also write what errors you encountered while building source codes.

14

Many thanks!
I set up a new VM with Debian Buster and take the snapshot from the staging tree. I started the compile and it run ~2 hours and I got a binary. First test with USB stick booted OpenWrt...

Hello! I try install openwrt on my MS2000 but I see errors:

What did I do wrong?

Thank you

16

what image did you use?

I'd say it's to big for your current U-boot.

You could try to update your u-boot as well
https://forum.doozan.com/read.php?3,12381

Doozan also have info about how to install Linux on the Storas.

Thank you. Will be try

18

the uboot env variables might be off, but I'm not very good with the param/sizes in those,

But which steps exactly did you take, when you tried to get openwrt into your Stora ?
And what version is your u-boot ?

I have a Seagate Dockstar and a Pogoplug series 4 both running OpenWRT, so it's doable,
but they're also officially supported by openwrt :confused:

19

Yes, I did it. Openwrt is load.

That was quick :slight_smile:
did you update u-boot, or just the params ?

if it's a snapshot image, you have to install web ui manually.

opkg update
opkg install luci

Check your uboot-variables, your uboot says MS2110, not MS2000.
It's the arcNumber param, if I remember correctly.
https://sigri44.github.io/OpenStora/wiki/index_How_to_install_Debian_Linux_on_NETGEAR_Stora.html

you can enable NC (netcat) for uboot, then you can interact with it over ethernet, instead of serial cable.
