I've been trying to install OpenMediaVault 4.1.3 from an usb stick on my HP Microserver Gen8. I created the boot stick in various ways (dd, etcher, UNetbootin) but during installation (in the partitioning step) I repeatedly ended up with the following error message (and later 'creating ext4 file system failed' appeared):

To create the stick with dd, I followed the official instructions here. I also made sure that SATA support is set to AHCI and I also tested versions 3.0.94 and 4.0.14.

The following command can be used to write the ISO file on the USB Stick on Linux. Sudo dd if=openmediavault_2.1. From installation media. Contabilidad 1 angrisani lopez pdf. Open a web browser. Jun 8, 2017 - We're going to get OpenMediaVault, install it on our Raspberry Pi, tweak a few. You'll see your USB storage devices in the Device(s) column.

What can I do to solve this issue?

I've managed to solve the issue in the following way:

  1. burn the openmediavault iso on a cd
  2. format the usb stick with ext4 file system, under macOS I did this with: Bd c6500 apps.

    Us history pdf free download. 2.1 brew install e2fsprogs

    2.2 sudo $(brew --prefix e2fsprogs)/sbin/mkfs.ext4 /dev/disk3

  3. plug in the ext4-formatted usb stick, boot from cd and follow the installation wizard -> partitioning doesn't fail in this constellation for me

    I need to make some changes to my Nas setup and was wondering what the drawbacks are to:
    1) running omv of a usb stick ( and what usb stick are suggested)
    2) running omv of a ssd which I would also use for data storage ( for sync applications and things that a frequently accessed so the hdd doesn't have to spin up)
