#Install sonarr on headless openmediavault iso#

openmediavault provides ISO installersР вЂќР вЂЎor x86 architecture and several preconfigured images for ARM devices.

Check if your hardware is supported on the system requirements.

The default option is for network connections.

Hit Р Р†Р вЂљРЎС™EnterР Р†Р вЂљРЎСљ again after about 5 seconds.

Do this carefully to ensure you get it right, especially since you canР Р†Р вЂљРІвЂћСћt see feedback (no monitor)

Then type your password in and hit enter. Turn on your machine and wait a few minutes to make sure itР Р†Р вЂљРІвЂћСћs good to go.You can run it headless, just do the following: Of course, that was a bit trickier without lugging a bunch of crap to my workstation. If you have a monitor and cable, you can just login and run that command and be good to go. It turns out that it wonР Р†Р вЂљРІвЂћСћt auto detect the new network cable you plugged in and you have to set it upР Р†Р вЂљР’В¦ ugh.

Then, you unplug from the bench and plug into where itР Р†Р вЂљРІвЂћСћs going to live.

You will then proceed to login via the prompt and verify things look good. Things will appear to be working well, locally with no network. If youР Р†Р вЂљРІвЂћСћre like me, youР Р†Р вЂљРІвЂћСћre going getting through the install, reboot and login. This will cause issues later, so we will take care of that later.

The network sources for the Debian repos will not be configured properly.

It will warn you that nothing is configured. When it tries detecting networks and tries to do DHCP, you can just cancel it.

The network detection is going to fail.

There are a few changes that I will list belowР Р†Р вЂљР’В¦

#Install sonarr on headless openmediavault install#

You can install it with the directions from the site. But itР Р†Р вЂљРІвЂћСћs not too bad to fix the issues you come up with if you canР Р†Р вЂљРІвЂћСћt, this post is hoping to get people on the same page about that. For the record, life is easier if you just install while connected to a network. I wouldnР Р†Р вЂљРІвЂћСћt be writing here today though if it was so simple. With no WiFi card and understanding it would hopefully pick up network config later when I plugged it back in headless later, I decided to try and install it without being connected to the network since it was supposed to be supported. I didnР Р†Р вЂљРІвЂћСћt really want to install that one at the time since it would be a pain and I was moving soon anyway. The only issue is that my workbench (the backup server has no monitor or keyboard near it) where I service my machines (it has a small monitor + KB mouse combo) had no network cable there yet since I had moved. Since it was mostly just a rsnapshot drone + HDD enclosure for the backup drives, I figured something simpler that could be installed to a flash drive with some persistence would do the trick. I wanted to replace it with a flash drive OS and remove the 2TB drive being used as a host OS drive, since I wanted to use it for something else.

I have a backup server in my home as well that I sometimes use for mirroring data, which was running Debian for a while. While I have some gripes about it (that I wonР Р†Р вЂљРІвЂћСћt get into here) it has been running rock solid for quite some time and has serviced all my needs, especially with the Docker container support. My current media server is running unRAID.
