Hi,

after many days of unsuccessful googling and researching I would like to involve the community:

I would like to install Nas4free on a netbook's SSD from the usb flash drive.

Hard disk name: Toshiba 2.5" HDD MK..55GSX
Versions tried: LiveUSB image of Stable and unstable
Error: Syntax error: Undetermined quoted string
USB stick size: Tried 2GB and 64GB

Once booted from liveUSB I select menu 9, 1 and then choose the source (da0 8.07)

After this the screen flashes and goes back to menu 9.

Error message is "Syntax error: Undetermined quoted string" I believe it is because of the name of the SSD: Toshiba 2.5" HDD MK..55GSX .
I guess the string is not cleaned up before it is used, or the additional special characters are not escaped.

What I tried:
- renaming the SSD: I could not do it
- renaming the disk through the web interface: did not solve the issue
- tried different versions of nas4free
- tried different USB sticks
- tried different menthods to write the image to the USB (on Windows and on Linux as well)

What do you think the solution would be here?

thank you for your help in advance!

this sounds like a bug.

please create a ticket
http://sourceforge.net/p/nas4free/bugs/?source=navbar

however. just try installing the embedded version on another usb stick for now.
you can also create the stick on another computer and move the finished stick to the netbook.
however notebooks make for very pool nas servers. they have limited expandability and non standard hardware.
Nas4Free 11.1.0.4.4517. Supermicro X10SLL-F, 16gb ECC, i3 4130, IBM M1015 with IT firmware. 4x 3tb WD Red, 4x 2TB Samsung F4, both GEOM AES 256 encrypted.

I opened a ticket: #218

I will try your suggestion and use embedded. Just playing around with the netbook, later I will have specific hardware for this.

Thanks for the quick reply, the topic can be closed.
