    I have a Intel SS4200 (also known as Fujitsu Scaleo Home Server).

    I have in 2021 the same problem for installing the newest version of OMV from scratch as described in Post 1.


    For my needs the hardware is good enough.

    So I want to know, what I have to do installing OMV (Version 5.6.13-1) on the DOM and using the 4 HDDs for storing my data?

    Thanks so much for the info!
    I didn't want to bother w/ the serial console so I did a slightly modified method installing to a different PC and then just swapping the DOM into my SS4200:

    • Download OMV iso and burn to CD or install onto USB stick using http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/
    • Install DOM in desktop. I disconnected all HDs just in case it didn't detect the DOM. I've seen Linux installers pick a drive automatically and wipe it when only detecting one possible install location.
    • Boot from USB stick or CD, install OMV on DOM following prompts.
    • Boot OMV from DOM (still on desktop).
    • login to root.
    • Type: echo ata_piix >> /etc/initramfs-tools/modules(press enter)
    • type: echo pata_legacy >> /etc/initramfs-tools/modules (press enter)
    • type: update-initramfs -u (press enter)
    • type: rm /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules (press enter)
    • type: shutdown -h now to shutdown desktop.
    • Remove DOM & install into SS4200
    • Assign static IP to the NAS from router
    • Start up NAS. Login from any other PC using web interface & assigned IP. Done!


    Thanks very much for the help!

    It seems that the solution today does not work any more. :(

    I am using OMV 5.6.13-1 (Linux 5.10.0-0.bpo.8-am64).

    But I would like to continue using my hardware.


    Has anyone a hint for me, that I can use all of my 4 HDDs? Thank you in advance.
