Install on QNAP NAS - entware/entware GitHub Wiki

Introduction

Entware can be installed using QPKG system. Please remove Optware, Qnapware if it is currently installed. Entware cannot be used simultaneously with Optware or Qnapware.

  1. Download this package for standard installation or this package for alternative installation
  2. Log into the QNAP browser application and open the "App Center".
    There is an icon at top-right dubbed "Install Manually". Browse to the downloaded package and install.
  3. If you do not ssh login as the "admin" user,
    create a .profile file in your home directory with the content of source /opt/etc/profile. This will add the opkg packages to your path.

This package will autodetect NAS platform and deploy appropriate Entware binaries. Following platforms are supported:

  • aarch64 (x28+),
  • armv5 (x19),
  • armv7 (x31, x41, x28),
  • i686/x86-32
  • x86-64.

More discussion of installation is here - https://forum.qnap.com/viewtopic.php?f=351&t=139781 - but requires an account and lots of searching.

NOTE Current armv7 architecture users running Entware-ng, or any user currently running Entware-3x, can switch to Entware by running opkg update; opkg upgrade twice. Qnap owners using Entware-ng (armv5, x64) can upgrade to the new Entware using unofficial instructions published in this topic. This will not change package name in AppCenter.
