Hi guys,
http://wiki.nas4free.org/doku.php don't work and I have not found the informations here.
I have installed NAS4Free-x86-10.2.0.2.1868.img on Acer EQ965RT Core2@2.40GHz with 3GB ram.
1) if I would like upgrade to 10.2.0.2.2003, via gui i see same images with "System | firmware upgrade" page, but i don't have it, it possible? I must make a new install?
2) if I would like upgrade from x86 to x64, it is possible upgrade or I have to do a new install? If i save configuration file, install from usb, restore configuration file. It's correct or after that the partitions on disk are destroyed and i lost anything?
thx

yes, perhaps you do a full or live install, please post a screen capture of your system page to see if say embeded , live or full install.
PD: To upgrade from WebGUI you need to have a embeded install

not possible by WebGUI, but you can do a new embeded install and restore config.
all must work and you can`t lose data, but remember that have a backup of important data is always a good point.

Do a embedded installation, it is recommended and it supports upgrades via webgui

Code: Select all
1 install EMBEDDED OS/MBR on HDD/SSD/CF/USB
2 install EMBEDDED OS/GPT for over 2TB bootdisk
3 upgrade EMBEDDED OS from LiveCD/LiveUSB
-
4 install EMBEDDED OS/MBR without SWAP
5 install FULL OS on HDD/SSD + DATA + SWAP
6 install FULL OS from LiveCD/LiveUSB
7 upgrade and convert FULL OS to EMBEDDED
5 FULL installation is worse than 1 EMBEDDED?

Not worse.
is recomended for all users.
Full are only for power users taht really need to install packages on it and know what are doing.

So,
with "install EMBEDDED OS/MBR on HDD/SSD/CF/USB" i lost everything (nothing important)...
- install
- import configuration
- reload
- there was a "pount of mount" error. There was a "retry" link near. I clicked on, but the same situation. I opened the pount of mount option, click on "save and reload"... it was the end. The error was disappeared, but every file/directory inside.
So, the UPGRADE DOES NOT SAVE THE FILES AND FOLDERS.
thx
