unable to install the latest version of OMV on microserver gen 8

Hi All,

I seems to be stuck at NIC driver when trying to install latest OMV.
I've tried amd64 and i386 and both stuck at the same point.
Any ideas? do i need to get driver from hp website? if yes, which o/s?
also, if my memory serves me right, amd64 is the 64 bit version correct? Thanks

Hi All,

would really appreciate if I can get any help on this. Cheers

Try this image instead. It uses and installs the 3.16 kernel. So, it should find your NIC.

thanks ryecoaaron, i tried it and now getting an error on grub installation part.
please see screenshot. Thanks

Just search and find:
OMV Installation auf HP Microserver G1610T

Good luck,
Thomas

Hi Thomas, I'm also getting the same error with the 1.9 iso

Are you using a USB stick to install? Did you unplug your data drives?

Hi Ryecoaaron,

Yes, I'm trying to install it and no i left my data drive plugged in.
However, it did detect both storage and prompted me to select of where i want to install it on.
I selected the USB and seems to be running okay until I got that error with the grub installation

should i be unplugging all other HDDs?

Zitat von ryecoaaron

Yep. Just the OS drive should be plugged in until after installation.

Hi Ryecoaaron,

Just to confirm should I be using your ISO or the one Thomas sent? which one is newer? Cheers

Awesome. Thx.
I'll try this tonite.

thanks ryecoaaron,

it's working well. thanks again for your help. always appreciated!

Hi Rye,

Hopefully this will be the last time for a long time
basically, I've got a RAID 1 on the old OMV 0.5
I've moved the HDDs across to the new OMV, it detected it but it doesn't mount it automatically.

I'm just wondering the best way to mount this?

here's the detail of the array
Version : 1.2
Creation Time : Mon Nov 3 23:07:27 2014
Raid Level : raid1

here's the result of blkid

and result cat /proc/mdstat
Personalities : [raid1]
md127 : active (auto-read-only) raid1 sdb[0] sda[1]
1953513424 blocks super 1.2 [2/2] [UU]

should I be updating fstab? and copy the detail across from the old OMV?

Thanks

It's not detected there. So I can't mount it
The only thing I could do is create. Which gives me the option to select the raid array but obviously thats not what I wanna do as it will format it

still no go

after the reboot, here's screenshots of file system and raid

please ignore the missing one on capture1.jpg as that was initially the hdd that I had earlier. Ive taken it out just to avoid confusion.

Also tried mounting it
mount /dev/md127 and was getting this message (not sure if i use the correct syntax)
