Ok. before I go out willy nilly installing things, what can I expect to break if I do the upgrade?
Bearing in mind that most of my extra functionality has been provided through optware.

edit so much for that. I've started the download anyway. Here's hoping I'm not rebuilding the thing again. Good Luck!

Things that work:
-enabling ssh via firmware upgrade
-installing optware
-Transmission+php+fast-cgi etc. via optware

Things that didn't work:
-needed to edit fstab to mount sda4 properly

The upgrade is a self extracting tar + gzip file. You can download it here:

(This is for a MBWEII, I am not sure it applies to a MBWEI).
http://cache.websupport.wdc.com/wdgxnc-02.00.15.wdg

Saving the files might be a good way to restore MBWEII.

#!/bin/sh -e

  1. J J Larkworthy
  2. convert to self extracting/updateing archive.

UPGRADE_DIR=/var/upgrade

#extract code to /var directory.
SKIP=‘awk ’/^ARCHIVE_FOLLOWS/ {print NR +1; exit 0 }' $0`

tail +${SKIP} $0 | gunzip | tar xm -C ${UPGRADE_DIR}

cd /var
chmod +x ${UPGRADE_DIR}/upgrade*.sh

exit

is it the only way to update firmware or is there another way like ssh hack (Martin Hinner)

So I tried to build mt-daapd from source and got an error:
configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH

I thought that maybe my $PATH was screwed:
[root@MyBookWorld ~]# echo $PATH
/opt/bin:/opt/sbin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/local/bin

Woops- what's going on here?:
[root@MyBookWorld sbin]# find / -name gcc
Nothing.

So is it just me, where has my compiler gone?

Is the firmware uclibc built with LDSO_RUNPATH? That would allow one to run optware without LD_LIBRARY_PATH or ldconfig.

See also http://mybookworld.wikidot.com/forum/t-29433#post-83512

If their firmware source code is available, someone with serial console access (or at least can mount the disk some where else) really should try reconfigure and replace the uclibc.

No, it is not.

I find it still necessary to run ldconfig specifying /opt/lib.

I would try as you suggest, but I'm not confident in my own skills at the moment to try.

well it kinda formats your root partition so you need to start all over again, i would suggest not to upgrade if you dont want to lose your configs and stuff. make a backup.

bleeding edge FTW!

There is a unfs3 package in the optware feeds. I wonder what the performance is like. I think I would prefer a packaged userspace implementation that is easy to update than grabbing something from the backup image.

helps against this. is the optware package wrongly configured??

Could well be early morning and not enough coffee or just wishful thinking . Network monitor was showing over 50% use with nothing else on the go . It was about 35% before the new firmware .

omfg!! seems like the new firmware is actually faster i got 9.5 MB/s down over ftp!

but i still don't recommend it coz the WD guys have really stripped it and there are a lot of stuff missing what you might need..

hmm but upload is still the same 5 MB/s so it doesn't make that much difference

What about file transfer over SAMBA? Is there any improvement?
Also, it is necesary to reinstall everything (optware), right?
I use it to store media files and open them directly from the drive and with the old firmware it seams that HD don't work very nice, so that info might be interesting. Thanks!
