You can reset the admin password to the default ("123456") using the following procedure:
There is no known official way to reset the root password to it's default
value ("welc0me").
However, I developed a way to resetted it by installing a fake firmware update.
Most of my packages seems to be in use by quite a lot
of people (some packages have been downloaded several thousand times), so you
might get help at the MyBook WhiteLight wikidot pages
(use the forum search).
Also note that most packages are meant to be used by experienced Linux users only.
Despite it's name, .opk files are just ar archives, so "ar x file.opk"
does the trick. Sometimes you might also find .ipk packages, which are either
ar or tar archives (for which "tar xvf file.ipk" would unpack the
content).
The archive contains another archive called data.tar.gz which contains the
interesting parts...
Note: If you don't understand the part above, you maybe don't need to worry
what is inside the packages.
The userspace tool ox-crypt exists only on the BlueRing MyBook (so I do not have it).
The bluering MBWE has a different libc, so packages for the whitelight will not work on it.
In the Bluering section of the wikidot pages,
you might find similar packages for the Bluering MBWE.
Your serial console will give you valuable hints on what is wrong (most likely the kernel is configured in a way the MBWE does not like)
You should confirm that the installer itself works by installing my kernel test-image that is know to work. It can be found at the bottom of the kernel installer page.
Packages that are not mentioned on the according page are no longer available.
You also might have a look at my Synology DS213 packages. Though that NAS has a different CPU (but also ARM architecture) and a different libc-version, some of those packages seem to work for the WDH1NC10000.
WD seems to have changed the update URL's, so my previous upgrade_fw script
which downloaded and installed the latest firmware via console did not work
any longer.
However I removed the automatic download part so the current version of the
script unpack_fw.sh
works again, but you have to download and provide the firmware file manually.
Also see next question.
I might have mentioned here and there that I had been working on a newer/better firmware updater for the shell, but since I sold my WDH1NC10000 this work has been halted.
One known location to download firmware (as of May 2013) is
http://download.wdc.com/nas/wdhxnc-01.02.14.img
I am not tracking whether it still works or not.
Most likely, I DID get your messages but either did not understand your question and/or decided that answering would be a complete waste of time. Please stop sending messages.
