OK, I'll run OMV from my USB stick. I was just wondering what recent thoughts were on doing so. Several years ago I had another Linux OS running the server from a USB stick (disabling journaling and setting noatime in.fstab) and there was a long power outage when I wasn't around to shutdown the server properly before the UPS ran out of power, corrupting data on the USB stick. Jan 08, 2020 Open Media Vault is designed to be its own slim, fast, efficient server + operating system in a single package. It is optimized for that and it shows. Yes, there are also other storage solutions out there for small businesses, but for those who don’t have the resources or the funds for those, there is Open Media Vault.

Hi,
I want to buy the HP ProLiant MicroServer N54L and use Open Media Vault with 2x 1.5TB harddisks in RAID1.
Additionally to the external USB ports, the N54L also has one internal USB port.
Based on my understanding and according to the Wiki (wiki.openmediavault.org/index.php?title=Installation) it would be possible to install Open Media Vault 'on' a USB stick.
However, accordingto the Wiki it's not recommended:
What is your experience?
Are there any disadvantages?
Thanks and best regards!
P.S.: I was also searching for this topic within the forum but could only find how to install Open Media Vault 'from' a USB stick, whereas I want to install it 'on' a USB stick.

- 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)
Important
Disconnect all disk devices except the one that will be used for theoperating system before starting the installation.
Warning
The operating system/root filesystem will consume the whole space of thepicked disk device. All existing data on that disk device will get lost.
Burn the installer¶
For x86 architecture you can burn the ISO directly into a USB drive usingetcher or dd linux utility:
If you have a CD-DVD burner, you can burn the ISO into an optical mediathen boot from CD or DVD.
Boot the installer¶
For x86 architecture, enter BIOS configuration, select to boot either fromUSB or CD and reboot.
Installer¶
The current ISO installer is reduced to have minimal interaction. You willprompted to select location, language and root password. The installer willpick the first available disk to deploy the the OS.
Once the installer finished the system will reboot, make sure you remove theinstaller and select BIOS to boot from the disk where openmediavault was installed.You can also start connecting any data drives you previously disconnectedbefore install or reinstall.
