Hi,

A.D.M. is an embedded Linux, so limited compare to any standard distribution
A.D.M. don't use any of the know package manager ... like pacman, rpm, apt, etc.

But A.D.M. support APKG tools able to add some functionalities

Entware APKG is a port of package tools and managements from OpenWRT .. permitting to add / update / maintains up to 1900 packages (G.N.U. tools, editor, etc. etc.)
this tools are installed in a specific structure with it's own libraries ...

To use it (ex. here is : target install and use nano)
1 use AppCentral to install Entware APKG
2 when finish and Enable, open a ssh terminal (admin or root / Your_admin_password)
3 use opkg package manager to play with packages
opkg update (update list of packages and versions)
opkg upgrade (upgrade installed packages and libraries if needed)
opkg list | grep ^nano (just verify nano is available)
opkg install nano (install nano) then use it ...
etc. etc.

All Linux like Entware structure is in /opt link for bin lib etc.
Entware include autorun at boot using /opt/etc/init.d scripts folder with a common name approach SxxPackage
Entware is documented in Github : https://github.com/Entware/Entware/wiki
APKG (for Asustor) package is maintained by me.

Hi,
Thanks you very much for your help.
Now I have to learn how use it.

It's my first asustor, because before I worked with Synology, but they don't have sfp port.
So now I have to discover my AS4002T.

Thanks again,
@JC
