Facts

Name: RENMOD (Rename /raid/data/module to /raid/data/module.save)

Maintainer(s): Andreas Vogel (omega), Peter Futterknecht (peterfu)

Target: N5200

Latest version: 2.0

Depends on module(s): None

Description

Module version 1.0

This patch will do the following things:

  • Rename /raid/data/module to /raid/data/module.save

This script just renames the folder /raid/data/module to /raid/data/module.save. This script is needed for the situation, where one of the modules for firmware <= 1.00.05 has been installed and then a firmware upgrade to >= 1.00.06.5 was done without renaming/removing /raid/data/module prior to the update.

Starting with firmware 1.00.06.5 there is a new "official" module framework which uses the path /raid/data/module too. The module star procedure of the new module framework is not able to handle the situation that /raid/data/module already exists correctly. Therefore this directory must be removed or renamed.

This patch renames that directory so you have all of its file still available. Please remove it manually when you don't need it any more.

Once again: this script just renames /raid/data/module if it exists - nothing more. No risk!

Module version 2.0

This version works also for FW version > 2.00.00 (should be work up to 9.00.99). Use it if Your module environment is corrupted, cause after a reboot it is build from scratch. Function is the same as module version 1.0
