LaCie operating systems

This section gathers all informations about the different LaCie stock systems.

Legacy system (before 2011-2012)

EEPROM

Organization

The EEPROM is available for reading and writing under Linux at the pseudo file /sys/bus/i2c/devices/0-0050/eeprom. The content of the eeprom is the following:

Offset Meaning Notes
00..01 Version/MAC Addresses It indicates how many mac addresses are stored in the eeprom, it's always 00 02 (2) but only the first mac appears to be valid
02..07 Mac address It's the mac address of your board
08..13 2nd Mac address Bogus mac address 01 FF FF FF FF FF
14 Power flag 0 = wait for the button, 1 = auto power on
15 Fake sleepmode Used by the Lacie stock initramfs, it's FD and you can ignore it

Auto power on

Normally, after applying power, you have to push the button to turn on the ns2. If you want it to switch on automatically, you have to switch a bit in the i2c eeprom. The bit is at offset 14 in the eeprom, changing it from 0 to 1 will enable auto switch on.

Disk partitions

  • sda1: extended, 2056 Mb
  • sda2: xfs, md raid0/raid1, user data, the remaining part of the disk
  • sda5: swap, md raid1, 263,18 Mb
  • sda6: Linux kernel U-Boot Image, 8,23 Mb
  • sda7: ext3, md raid1, minimal root partition, 8,23 Mb
  • sda8: ext3, md raid1, original firmware partition, 871,88 Mb
  • sda9: ext3, md raid1, snapshots/upgrades partition, 896,56 Mb
  • sda10: filled with zeroes (may be used for an alternate kernel), 8,23 Mb

Boot

The Linux kernel is loaded from disk.

Linux

Here are the possible versions for the Linux kernel:

  • 2.6.22.18.
  • 2.6.31.14.

Here are the possible versions for the Linux Marvell patch:

  • LSP 5.0.3
  • LSP 5.1.3

Userland

  • Coreutils: busybox
  • HTTP: lighttpd
  • FTP: ProFTPd
  • SMB: Samba (unix extensions disabled by default; to enable them, change the corresponding line in /snaps/00/etc/samba/smb.conf on sda9)
  • Bonjour: Avahi/Zeroconf
  • SSH: Openssh (disabled by default; to enable it, uncomment the corresponding line in /etc/initng/runlevel/default.runlevel on sda8 and change root password in /snaps/00/etc/shadow on sda9)
  • Rsync: disabled by default, to enable it define a new daemon in /etc/initng on sda9 to launch “/usr/bin/rsync –daemon” and add it to /etc/initng/runlevel/default.runlevel
  • Deep sleep mode: can be enabled from the web interface, but if ssh has been enabled it is simpler to call /sbin/smart_shutdown
