Did you read this topic and followed the suggestions?
https://plugout.net/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=2645#p24584

Yes I have. Just confirming I select: UIMAGE-3142-KIRKWOOD-158-standalone in the folder on which one to install?

[fvdw]

Yes that is the correct one. After the standalone kernel isuploaded en when you have connected with telnet client, run fvdw-sl- programs command to able to run fvdw-sl installer program

I get it to upload and start the kernal then telnet opens and I get the message "Connection to 192.168.0.052/telnet timed out. I have followed all the instructions. Any idea?

Hi jcl2020

Your laptop and the nas must be on the same subnet and pluging in the same switch or router.

Hi jcl2020

Your laptop and the nas must be on the same subnet and pluging in the same switch or router.

Can you please confirm which subnet this is? I have put everything back to factory defaults and I am still getting the issue. Here is a video of what happens: https://youtu.be/UFq0bN7-No4

Hi jcl2020,

I watched your video but badly I could not read information about the laptop IP (too bad resolution). I believe it is something like 169.254.xxx

If yes that means your laptop should get a dynamic IP from a DHCP server but it fails to get a lease from it.

What lan config is good :
- your laptop has a dynamic IP then you should use a router with a DHCP server and connect the nas and the laptop to it
- your laptop has a static IP then you need to use at least a switch (but not a hub) and connect the nas and the laptop to it

Now how work fvdw-sl console, to summarize:
- fvdw-sl console broadcasts on the LAN (on the subnet related with the Ethernet card Ip of your laptop) information which will stop the bootloader of your nas
- as soon as this event happens and the standalone kernel loaded, the nas sets its IP according with the laptop IP (it gets this information from the special boot commandline sent by the laptop)
- the nas configures its Ethernet card to run on the same subnet of your laptop and then starts telnet daemon to get a shell console
