  • Install OMV with manual partitioning

    Zitat von ryecoaaron

    There is no way to do that with the OMV install ISO. Why not use the Debian installer then? There is not much difference. Create your partition/lv layout, pick minimal install, and installing OMV after that is very simple:


    Bash
    echo "deb http://packages.openmediavault.org/public erasmus main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/openmediavault.list
apt-get update
apt-get install openmediavault-keyring postfix
apt-get update
apt-get install openmediavault
omv-initsystem


    Thank you so much ryecoaaron, I'll try this way.
    I'll mark this thread as resolved.

  • Install OMV with manual partitioning

    Hello,
    I think this is my first post here, and it could have typo errors due to my foreign origin.


    I've been using OMV for a long time, because I think it is the best NAS distro (for my needs), and I've installed/updated it many times.
    I know it's possible to install it into a pre-installed debian, but if I can avoid it, i would.


    Whenever I try to install it, if the system has >1 disk, the wizard asks wich disk to use, but if there's only 1 disk it makes fully automated partitioning.


    Personally I dislike this setting, I wish (would like) it was like (pure) debian's install wizard, where you can choose auto/manual/raid/lmv/luks... at the appropiate wizard step (hard disk config).


    I'm in the point I'd like to install OMV over LMV or software RAID so,
    Is there any *easy* way to do it? (Manually disk partitioning during the installation. Eg. GRUB parameters o so)



    Thanks, and Thank you very much to all the people who put any effort to help/enhance this project.

  • [VirtualBox] Point me out

    First of all, thanks for the fast response.
    It seems we did a big progress:


    # VBoxManage extpack install --replace Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-4.3.10-93012.vbox-extpack
    0%...10%...20%...30%...40%...50%...60%...70%...80%...90%...100%
    Successfully installed "Oracle VM VirtualBox Extension Pack".


    Then I have restarted the VBox service in OMV. Now, and I can configure the Remote Display (by Remote Desktop protocol).


    After some attempts I figured the correct configuration:
    Net Address must be a real IP of the server to listen on.


    On windows run: mstsc, typed the previous IP address, and 'voilà' it works like a charm! :) :)


    Thank you guys for your effort bringing(/helping in) all of this!

  • [VirtualBox] Point me out

    Hi, I've spent too many hours with this:


    I was able, through many reinstalls, to setup the VirtualBox plugin on my OMV installation, but if I create a new VirtualMachine on my remote server (OMV) I am not able to control it.


    It boots right but I don't know how to control mouse and keyboard, I am only watching the "Preview" thumbnail. The console button is disabled and if I enable the RemoteDisplay feature it's striked (--3-3-8-9--) on the settings and the port isn't working/listening.


    Any hint/advice/howto-proceed, please?
    Thanks in advance.
