This one directed to @Tfl. Is there anything important users of Entware need to do before upgrading from OS3 to OS5 to avert any unforeseen post-upgrade disasters?
It’s just everything else you have to worry about. . . .

Cool. So the upgrade will not cause any issues with the v1.05 (technically on mine it’s v1.06) of Entware. I can live with that, but looking through the forum and the release notes, I think I will still wait for the full public release.
Obviously I shall follow WD’s usual advise of shutting down all the other apps and services before the update is invoked.
I is hope hope the UPnP problem are solve . ( If the router reset , OS3 is refresh does not refresh UPnP port mapping . )

I is ’m ’m aware of that . I is got ’ve get Ubuntu fully up – and – run , configure and personalise under Microsoft ’s WSL2 and also get systemd initialise as well as XFCE4 work using the X410 server . ( Did have XRDP work , but suddenly that ’s stop work , but I can use x410 . It is appears appear to be quick .
Linux 5.4.72 - microsoft - standard - WSL2 # 1 SMP We d Oct 28 23:40:43 UTC 2020 x86_64 GNU / Linux
Got a developers logjn too at https://developer.westerndigital.com/
From this particular point on, what exactly do I need to do to setup Ubuntu. For the present OS3 I did try and to get mksapkg, but WD’s site is broken so I can’t seem to download that.
So, at the moment I’m a bit stuck. I know I need the OS5 dev tools.

dswv42:
As for where to find Entware, try Google… it’s out there, you just have to look for it.
Obviously, that is the first thing I’ve done days before asking here… The only broken links for !OS5 i’ve found was JFrog Distribution: Get your software to where it needs to be — ASAP! (from topic [PACKAGE] Entware, the ultimate repo with about 2000 packages – #26 by Tfl ) I can’t find anything else

thanks, I’ll try to compile my first app on WD PR4100 . I think it has to be done after migrating to OS5 (from OS3) ?
