some guys made it to run HS 4.0 original firmware on native hardware (no VM image or linux installation) – so firmware update is possible

a valid Mainboard is the following:

Fujitsu D3003-S1 (€160)

copyprotection is not based on MAC adress but on dmidecode
it is possible to program a new serial (one time only!)
if it doesn’t work the trick is to flash a new bios and then you can change the serial once again

Hi,
i use a Dell Optiplex FX 160 (it was cheap to get on ebay) and a 2 GB SSD in it.
i start with the vmware image from here and copy it with DD to a 4 GB USB Stick.

Then boot a Partion Live Image and shrink the partions to fit into 2 GB.
After that copy with DD the USB Stick to the internal SSD Drive an voila it works :-)

now i hope Update 4.2 next month will work anymore so i can use nativ Push in Gira App without my workaround.

And a friend of mine told me there is a chance to get the HomeServer as a Software only Product in future (to Run on NAS Devices etc.)

best

@ paul did it run nativ or in a vm ? becouse the protection from the hs4 was serial number saved in the bios how do you get this ?

is ther maybe som other motherboard that works as hs4 ? becouse the fsc d300-s1 is very expensive and not easy to buy

hi,
it runs on hardware (dell optiplex) without problems …
i used the VM Image from here (other thread) and cloned it on the device.

now i’m try to install update 4.2 …
