First downlaod the 14-0 package for the isp1, think that one is most close to the 5big1.
Unpack the zip file, you will get a file with extension .bin (xfvdw-sl-14-0-isp1-23dec2012.bin)
This is a bz2 compressed file. You can unpack it in Linux using tar -xjvf or in windows using a program like 7-zip.
You can also do using the running firmware.
Put the the .bin file in the share with name "public"
Connect with putty to ssh server (user: root password: giveit2me
Give on the command line this command to extract the bin file
on the command give the command
- Code: Select all
ls /lacie-boot
If there is no file listed then your nas is running with the firmware on sda7
if it mentions sda1boot or sda2boot it is running from sda1 in case it mentions sda1boot and form sda2 if it is mentioning sda2boot.
I assume that it is notrunning from sda2 and that we are going to write the new firmware to sda2.
If it is running from sda2 you need to change the commands in the following tutorial accordingly to a different partition (sda1). Do NOT attempt to write the firmware to sda7 by method below. It will make your nas non functional. Only write it to sda2 (or sda1)
Unpack the isp1 upgrade file
- Code: Select all
cd /share/1000/public
tar -xjvf xfvdw-sl-14-0-isp1-23dec2012.bin
Now you will have in the public folder a file with name xfvdw-sl-14-0-isp1-23dec2012.img
This should be a file of 256 MB.
Write it to sda2 (or sda1 if sda2 is the partition in use of current firmware)
- Code: Select all
dd if =/share/1000/public/xfvdw-sl-14-0-isp1-23dec2012.img of=/dev/sda2
return to root folder
- Code: Select all
cd /
empty the directory /lacie-boot
remove any file present in the folder
set the file to enable boot from sda2
- Code: Select all
touch /lacie-boot/sda2boot
sync
Close putty
reboot the nas using the webinterface.
It should come up with fvdw-sl-14-0 now using partition sda2
Again: if sda2 is the partition in use of current running firmware replace sda2 by sda1 in the above commands.
