September 8, 200718 yr Download. A couple improvements: unRAID Server 4.2-beta3 Release Notes Upgrade Instructions (Please Read Carefully) -------------------------------------------- If you are currently running unRAID Server 4.2-beta1 or higher, please copy the following files from the new release to the root of your Flash device: bzimage bzroot If you are currently running unRAID server 4.1, please copy the following files from the new release to the root of your Flash device: bzimage bzroot syslinux.cfg menu.c32 memtest This can be done either by plugging the Flash into your PC or, but copying the files to the 'flash' share on your running server. The server must then be rebooted. If you are currently running unRAID Server 3.0-beta1 or higher, please follow these steps to upgrade: 1. Referring to the System Management Utility 'Main' page, make a note of each disks's model/serial number; you will need this information later. 2. Shut down your server, remove the Flash and plug it into your PC. 3. Right-click your Flash device listed under My Computer and select Properties. Make sure the volume label is set to "UNRAID" (without the quotes) and click OK. You do NOT need to format the Flash. 4. Copy the files from the new release to the root of your Flash device. 5. Right-click your Flash device listed under My Computer and select Eject. Remove the Flash, install in your server and power-up. 6. After your server has booted up, the System Management Utility 'Main' page will probably show no devices; this is OK, navigate to the 'Devices' page. Using the model/serial number information gathered in step 1, assign each of your hard drives to the correct disk slot. 7. Go back to the 'Main' page and your devices should appear correctly. You may now Start the array. If you are installing this release to a new Flash, please refer to instructions on our website at: http://www.lime-technology.com/wordpress/?page_id=19 Changes from 4.1-beta2 to 4.2-beta3 ----------------------------------- Improvement: changed method for spinning up drives - should be more reliable. Improvement: added lastest Realtek r8168 driver verion 8.003.00. This is the Linux device driver released for RealTek RTL8168B/8111B and RTL8168C/8111C, Gigabit Ethernet controllers with PCI-Express interface. Changes from 4.1-beta1 to 4.2-beta2 ----------------------------------- Bug Fix: don't create User shares from ordinary files found in the root of each disk. Bug Fix: correct problem where Windows would complain about "directory not found" when deleting a directory in a User share. Bug Fix: do not any user except 'root' log in to the console or telent. Changes from 4.1 to 4.2-beta1 ----------------------------- Improvement: added users and passwords support Improvement: full User Share support Improvement: added buttons to the Main page to immediately spin up or spin down all the hard drives. Also moved "Clear Disk Statistics" button to the Main page. Bug fix: Fixed code assertion bug handling disk errors. Misc: upgrade to linux 2.6.22.5 kernel. Misc: upgrade to Samba 3.0.25b. Note: after upgrading to this version of Samba, some users have reported that even though they can see their shares, Windows reports that the share is not accessible. This can be remedied by re-booting your Windows PC. Misc: added "-p port" option to emhttp executable to change the port that the System Management Utility listens to from the default '80'. Misc: added a boot menu with option to start "Memtest86+" - an open source x86 system RAM test suite. Refer to http://www.memtest.org/
September 8, 200718 yr In your 4.1-beta1 to 4.1-beta2 bugfix list, I believe you're missing the word "allow" "Bug Fix: do not" allow "any user except 'root' log in to the console or telent." Other than that, I can't wait to download 4.1 and give it a whirl! BillK
