[SlimDevices: 3rd-party-hardware] Re: Standby mode on DS106 with swap file on USB stick

[glem01]

Hi,

The subject of how to get the DS-106 to change to standby mode
(hibernation) again after installing additional software has been
discussed quite a lot.

I've resumed some tips & tricks about this on a kind of very schematic
Howto, downloadable from http://www.box.net/public/nc8zgsinp9

Resumed: you can get a really good working harddisk-standby, even with
SlimServer, a mail-server system, and monitoring tools, if you have
some basic linux knowledge and don't mind hacking a little around in
your DS. The procedure presented in the howto and tested in practice is
not a cookbook recipe you can follow step by step: this would have given
a much longer Howto. But you should figure out the missing details with
these basic ideas and be able apply them to your specific
configuration.

Note: this doesn't cover standby mode of external USB-harddisks.

Very important: You definitely loose all support rights for Synology
support if you follow some or all of the described points. I decline
any resbonsibility if your system gets screwed up or yourd harddisk
crashes and you loose all your data. And I will not be able to give
lots of support... but please notify me if you find errors or wrong
statements.

It works for me, and perhaps it may be useable for someone else, that's
all!

Regards, Manuel
