I understand that I need to do a new install. I have two drives, both 1Tb with one being partitioned for the OS. The partitioned drive also has 80gib of data on it and im unsure what that data is. Is there a way to check before overwriting all data on that drive?
Upgrade from 3.x to 6.x, understand that I need to do a fresh install.

- OMV 3.x
- Upgrade 3.x -> 4.x

You can check from CLI. Or create a shared folder pointing at that filesystem and share it via smb.

How do you know there are 80GB of data?
The drive in question has two partitions? One for the OS and the other one has 80GB of data?
-
BTW: If you can boot from USB you could install on a USB thumb drive. That way you do not have to touch the drive you are currently using for the OS.
-
I also messed up the partitioning many years ago. Set this up in 2017 and left it untouched since then.

-
And on which device are the 80GB data you are interest in?
Is it sda3 with 71.26 GiB?
-
Are you able to use the command line interface (CLI) e.g. with Putty or cmd on Windows? Or any terminal in Linux?

Not sure about OMV3, but is this possible? It will show you the mountpoint in the table
-
Im sorry for wasting your time, I now know what is on the 80GB. DATA1 is all the stuff on the large partition so I need to be careful and install omv6 on the small partition

This is the mount point info. Doesn't look quite right and might be why I have to wait 1:30 mins to boot

If you install from the OMV ISO, it will use the complete drive. You CANNOT select a partition to install OMV.

That is probably due to the missing filesystem
-
Okay so I need to move all data from DATA2 to DATA1?
Yep.
Or use a USB thumb drive for the OS. Many do.
