Jan 14, 2014  Hello, I'm planning to install FreeNAS on my HP MediaSmart Server (LX197). As it does not have any VGA output, my option is to take out its hard disk, plug it into my desktop computer as master and install FreeNAS via CDROM. So without further ado, those of you with a MediaSmart can now install WHS2011 on it courtesy of ex HP employee Alex Kuretz of MediaSmartServer.net. Alex explains how to get the latest version of Windows Home Server installed on either a EX485, EX487, EX490, EX495, X510 DataVault or an LX195.

I'm sorry,, for what might have seen like a dumb post, but I asked those questions because (a) the server does not have a video card output connector on it, but I have read you can fabricate a cable and solder it to leads on the board, and (b) the server does not have a DVD drive to read a disc to install from. I have also read that you have to temporarily wire a jumper or two together to get the thing to come up in BIOS mode. I have installed FreeBSD before so I think I am good there. I guess I should have dumbed down my questions and worded it this way: Does anyone have a URL or document detailing installations of FreeBSD in the 'unique or challenging' environment of a HP Home MediaSmart server. Sorry for the confusion. At one point, there was a board that added both VGA and serial ports:.

The company website appears to be empty now. Information about the debug connector:,. Will it boot from USB? Starts, so it would just be a matter of figuring out what IP address it got from DHCP. Otherwise, figure out which hard drive is drive 0.

Then remove it, and use another machine to install FreeBSD on it. Enable and reinstall. Then install and do a full test on all the drives, because a 'dying' operating system is fairly likely to indicate drive failure. Looks like it's not going to be that easy. Introduction To Ai Robotics Murphy Pdf Printer. I pop in a hard drive and it doesn't boot up.

I think I figured out my NIC number and changed that in rc.conf, but I'm sure it's not booting up. (No further drive sounds after a split-second of 'scrunching'.) A lot of articles are telling me that I need a VGA debug cable so that I can make necessary BIOS changes, but also NIC is not recognize, and there is an on-board flash that gets used but FreeBSD (FreeNAS) doesn't recognize.

Seems many have the impression that a fair bit of anti-hacking went into this box. But I found one article that talks about making a bootable disk, then using a PC to install FreeNAS (so I am hoping I can with FreeBSD), and so on. The journey continues. Thanks for all your help so far guys. Well, not quite, that was an article that was written for FreeNAS, and the bootable disk is USB.

I thought you said install to a hard disk. Game Pes Hp Nokia C1 Ukuran 128*160. Anyway, I have done both, and the HP box doesn't boot. I can take my USB stick, stick it in a Dell machine and it will boot from the USB stick with no issues. I change the NIC name for DHCP to what I think it is for the HP unit, and try it. I am pretty sure it's not booting because the LED on the USB stick doesn't flash. I'll keep at this for a few more days but I suspect I might have to go buy the debug cable.

Bye bye Microsoft Windows Home Server. Hello FreeBSD 10.1-RELEASE 64 bit on my HP MediaSmart Server EX470. I got me a Generation 4 MediaSmart Server Debug Board made by Charles Kalapati's company VOV Technology.

I changed the BIOS to boot hard disk and set the onboard sata controller to '4P(IDE)+4S(IDE)'. I used another host machine to install the OS, and then simply swapped the drive. My original WHS drive is setting on a shelf for now, but I will likely blow away the OS someday and re-purpose that disk. Now I've just got to figure out a purpose for it. Thanks for the confirmation. I had an eagle electrical drawing here over years to do the hack (VGA and BIOS change) in a future, but never had the chance to do so.

So I gave it now to one of my nephews for hacking (he is using it with the standard Windows). Was hard to give it away as I also had done the memory and CPU upgrade. But now I have the two other and I am very happy - I might change the Gen6 into another Gen8 or Gen9 'for fun' - there is no need at home (and I don't know what I anyhow do with ~24TB of storage ). Sometimes HP has offers on theses nice cubicles that I can't resist.
