: LS-XHL and NFS

Hi, I'm new to this forum and I don't have a buffalo product at the moment, but I do want to buy the Buffalo LinkStation Pro LS-XHL 1TB because of it's incredible value. I will need a NAS to download torrent files and then stream these to my WDTV through a NFS server. Now here comes two issues:

 

How well does the torrent client work on the Buffalo LinkStation Pro LS-XHL?

 

According to this PDF: http://www.buffalotech.com/files/articles/LS-XHL_DS.pdf  There is support for NFS

 

According to this PDG: http://www.buffalotech.com/files/products/LS-XHL_DS.pdf There is no support NFS

 

I tried to look on this forum for this but could not really find anything useful, I read something about changed the kernel to enable NFS, but that was still problematic. So does this NAS support running a NFS server, or is there a way to solve that?

Transmission 1.92 is a very goot Torrentclient. Install with ipkg. Google Howto.

 

The PDF without NFS from 10.6.2009.

The PDF with NFS from 6.1.2010.

 

 

 

The actual Firmware is 1.24,

I dont know, if NFS works great.

It should work fine with the 1.24 firmware.  You cannot post a link to a site that will hack our firmware.  Telnet is not condoned.

Also in the firmware 1.26 for the LS-XHL there is not any NFS!

Which firmware has NFS?

None of our linkstations can do NFS, only our Terastations do.

Hy all!

 

I would like to ask for some help. I bought a Buffalo LS-T-XHL without firmware. I installed the 1.20 version on it, and then 1.41.
Version 1.41 under formatted the hard drive. Later, there was no longer the standard, the NAS's IP address. TFTBOOT The program does not want to recognize the buffalo.
It renamed the two files:
initrd.buffalo -> $ initrd
uImage.buffalo -> $ kernel
So let me install the 1.20 version, but installing 1.31 again stalled. The last step in the boot when Buffalo was 1200 seconds after the error message you stop, the buffalo is not only the 6 red LED starts flashing.

Someone help?
