[SOLVED] Running HDSentinel on Ubuntu Server 20.04 aarch64

[chrismin13]

Hello,

Just wanted to share some info regarding how to run the armv7 binary for HDSentinel on a Raspberry Pi 4 running an armv8 (aarch64 - arm64 - whatever you wanna call it) version of Ubuntu. I was running into the issue where I was getting the error message "-bash: ./hdsentinel-armv7: No such file or directory", even though the file was properly downloaded and with the correct permissions. I solved it in the following way:

Code: Select all

wget https://www.hdsentinel.com/hdslin/hdsentinel-armv7.gz

sudo dpkg --add-architecture armhf
sudo apt update
sudo apt install libgcc1-armhf

chmod u+x hdsentinel-armv7
sudo ./hdsentinel-armv7

Hope this helps someone out!

Hello, thank you so much for posting this solution. It was exactly what I'm looking for to try and get HDsentinel running on my Synology NAS (which is running arm64/aarch64) But there's a problem.... It has a stripped-down version of Linux, so I can't use the "apt" command. How else am I supposed to install the armhf architecture without the apt commands?
