Tried to update the Linux software on My Cloud

“A little knowledge is a dangerous thing”

Yes, the MyCloud is based on Debian Wheezy, but it’s built with a non-standard , 64k page size, so you can’t simply update or install from the usual repositories.

Be thankful you didn’t brick the thing…

I would probably re-install the WD build. Use SectorGZ’s trick to fool it into overwriting with an ‘older’ (I.e. not newer) version, described here:
