thanks for that - yes i was going to attempt that - but if the wrong nic drivers are loaded, im never going toget out of the starting gate!
isnt the raspberry pie headless? if so couldn't i use that installer ?

Hi
Im totally new to this and came across your software while researching NAS solutions as im fed up of losing data from single USB attached HDD solutions.

I purchased the hp second hand - having decided that SHR raid was the way forward - via xpenology. unfortunately - i cannot get the darned thing to obtain an ip address via dhcp no matter what i do. [ive returned it to its original windows home server software - which, frankly sucks!

moving forward, I would love to trial OMV with a view to running raid 5 - or, if available, something similar to SHR that isnt so wasteful if different sized disks are used.and the main piece of software - emby.

My first question is, how do i choose the correct image for the hp hardware? [bearing in mind that the hp is headless]
secondly - what are the raid options?
thirdly - will it run emby?

Hope im not treading on anyone's toes -
many thanks in advance for your help
Andy
