Armbian with preinstalled OpenMediaVault (OMV)

Igor · July 6

Download Armbian with OpenMediaVault (OMV)

Currently (for testing) only 4 targets were build: rock5-itx, odroid m1, odroid xu4 and x86. Once its confirmed that works well, other targets will be assembled.

Then boot the image, wait few minutes and login via:

U: admin

How was this assembled?

- you need a build framework which assembles Armbian (Debian variant is the only supported by OMV) https://github.com/armbian/build (can be compiled in GitHub free runners too)

- OMV extension: https://github.com/armbian/os/blob/main/userpatches/extensions/omv.sh (download this extension and place it into your build directory)

./compile.sh BOARD="uefi-x86" BRANCH=current RELEASE=bookworm ENABLE_EXTENSIONS="omv" KERNEL_CONFIGURE="no" BUILD_MINIMAL="yes"

Hello Igor,

try to build OMV for rpi4.

./compile.sh BOARD="rpi4b" BRANCH=current RELEASE=bookworm ENABLE_EXTENSIONS="omv" KERNEL_CONFIGURE="no" BUILD_MINIMAL="yes"

Got these error messages:

What I'm doing wrong?

omv extension isn't automatically shipped with the build framework. You can grab it here: https://github.com/armbian/os/blob/main/userpatches/extensions/omv.sh

MacBreaker · July 16

Ahh, okay, i didn't know

Now it's working.. 👍

Thank's Werner

The instructions on above (under DIY) should be clearer to explain that. When I looked at this earlier, I was guessing that is what the instructions assumed you needed to do (download that referenced file).

Edited the above instructions to clarify.

It takes some time before OpenHab initialises. How long did you wait? Can you provide some logs?

AlexVS · August 26

I waited for 10 to 20 minutes. I'll try again soon. Can you tell me which logs to provide?

AlexVS · August 27

will the syslog be sufficient?

@AlexVS

1. Downloaded this image: https://dl.armbian.com/rpi4b/Bookworm_current_server-openhab

2. Executed 1st login, create username (probably must have), created locales ...

3. As you can see OpenHab installation activities:

4. http://10.0.40.156:8080/ (you failed to see OpenHab manual

5. Login prompt (2-3 minutes after startup)

AlexVS · August 27

It seems to me that I did not understand you.

When I downloaded the image, I expected that OMV7 was preinstalled there. And after installing it, I hoped that OMV7 would be available for testing.

I am sorry. Apparently this is a translation difficulty.

That is no image with preinstalled OMV but with preinstalled openhab.

There is no image for ri4 with OMV preinstalled (as far as i see..). You have to build it by yorself.

See DIY on post 1.

Exactly.

Thank you very much. Installed the specified image. OMV has started. Now you can test it.

This is great, thanks for this it's exactly what I wanted!

Will this play nice with armbian-config eMMC install? I once tried after installing OMV on an sd card and the emmc transfer wouldn't boot (armbian-config's the only tool I've found to do an emmc install)

It should work - depends on the hardware - for the one we don't support, its unknown, for supported one we will try to fix in case of troubles. You can call

armbian-install

directly, so you don't install dependencies from armbian-config. There will soon be much lighter version of it, but current one is not very light.

Would any of these OMV images run on a 3328 Renegade?

I can run the Libre portability script so figure I just need it to boot

Werner · September 19

If there is no pre-made OMV image you can create your own just like mentioned under DIY at the very first post of this topic.

Also check the few posts after for copying the necessary extension if necessary.

I intend getting to this in time (also with OpenWRT) but for the moment I'm not in a position to do it.

If there's an image that'll boot on a renegade board then at least I can explore

Armbian install unfortunately not working to transfer an OMV install on a 3328 renegade board.

It boots but OMV is non functional (and seemingly irreparable)

Aha, you mean SD boot works, but then it fails to properly transfer it?

Short summary of process to follow:

I burn Armbian with Etcher, update etc and install OMV.

From here I use armbian-install (or armbian-config) to transfer to the eMMC. This is the only tool I've found that makes the eMMC transfer simple (thank you!).

The eMMC system boots and seems fine but OMV is not functional (though it works fine on the SD it was transferred from).

As a result I always just transfer the raw Armbian install to eMMC, boot from there and install OMV direct to the eMMC but it would be very handy to be able to transfer from an SD with a working OMV install fully configured as backup.

Hi Igor, any developments with these pre-rolled images?

Can I request a Renegade OMV image or will I need to wait for an LTS?

Thanks for your time,

Oscar

Open PR similar to this one https://github.com/armbian/os/pull/254 it's faster. I can execute build, but can't test.
