Hi
I'm a perfect n00b/newbie concerning Linux in general and OpenMediaVault particularly. My home-made NAS (6x2TB) was formerly driven by a Windows 2008 Storage Server... too "big" for my needs and my mobo (ITX Asus Mobo with Intel Atom 330, 4 GB ram). Long time ago, I used to play with FreeNas, but I think I would feel more confortable with a debian distro. I'm definitely not a BSD pundit :-/
That's why I chose OMV.
I read in the wiki section that booting on a USB stick was not recommanded. But this option would be really usefull for me, for many reasons (gain of one drive rack, shorter boot time and so on). Is there any way to "backup" a running image of this booting OMV USB key to avoid any problem due to a crash or bad stick reliability ? Does a booting USB key cause some limitation to OMV features (other than the number of write cycle a flash memory can handle ?)
Tanks
