    Today I setup my omv with newest version.


    After setup i Installed kernel plugin and booted to Clonezilla to backup setup but after this computer always restart to Clonezilla.


    It is headless setup.


    How to force boot to OMV?

    You must have used the "set boot" button instead of the "Reboot to clonezilla once" menu option.


    The easiest way to boot OMV would be to plug a keyboard and monitor in the system and choose the Debian kernel from the grub menu. Once back in OMV, use the "set boot" button on the Debian kernel.

    I need to make it from command line.


    From running Clonezliia where I find grub config file I know how to mount and edit files from command line?

    You would have to mount the os partition and bind mount /dev, /proc, /sys then chroot into the install. Then edit /etc/default/grub and run update-grub. Exit chroot, unmount the things you mounted, and reboot. The clonezilla environment isn't the best for this. Is there a reason you can't plugin a keyboard and monitor for the few seconds to just pick from the grub menu? It is much, much easier.

    Now it is OK. But not without problems.


    Computer with OMV was unable to detect booting device.


    Some problems was grub install cannot find efi directory


    1. I started SystemRescue from pendrive.


    2. After many attempts I choose form boot menu of SystemRescue - Find linux booting device or similar option it found my booting device and OMV was up and running.


    3. I logged in to OMV terminal as root user

    And run grub-install without any options. Grub was installed without any error rebooted OMV and it works.

    Something else happened to your system. The kernel plugin changing the default grub entry and running update-grub didn't cause this. These two steps happen every time you install a new kernel.
