How to install ipkg to Synology DS112+


There are some really good articles (1, 2) in internet about this issue, but actually it came out, that to get it work I had to mix several of them.

After several attempts I get it work in this way
  1. You must know your CPU model to download right package (if its not DS112+). You can find useful information from these articles (1, 2);

    # ssh -l root 192.168.1.68
    # mkdir /volume/temp
    # cd /volume/temp
    # wget http://wizjos.endofinternet.net/synology/archief/syno-mvkw-bootstrap_1.2-7_arm-ds111.xsh
    # chmod +x syno-mvkw-bootstrap_1.2-7_arm-ds111.xsh
    # sh syno-mvkw-bootstrap_1.2-7_arm-ds111.xsh
    # vi /root/.profile and put # before PATH ...
    # browser: reboot DS112+ from Synology Diskstation Main menu
  2. Trick is that PATH must have /opt/bin to find ipkg package and without commenting out PATH variable in /root/.profile it will overwrite /etc/profile PATH variable.
