Bit of a random question, from a previous post, I'm super new to this and TrueNAS, but had another question and typically not sure where this falls category wise.
Anyways, I currently have a monitor connected to my TrueNAS Server (I connected it for the initial setup). I have an old 5" HDMI monitor I wanted to utilize with this but not sure it's possible -- I connected the small 5" display via HDMI, and once TrueNAS is booted, it sits at the "Console Setup" dos/command style output, showing me the IP address and awaiting me to input a number if I wanted. I'm assuming this is the expected/intended behaviour since the continued setup is done via a web browser. But this led me to question, can I display something else somehow?
As an example, AIDA64 has nice customizable sensor panel things... I appreciate that wouldn't run on TrueNAS (I don't think) but basically I want to customise what is shown on the screen, is this possible or will it only show debug/console output here?
I'm open to other ideas such as using a Pi Zero to output to the screen instead, but I'd like a way to display info from the TrueNAS server.
Imagine it like AIDA64 Remote Monitoring
