Hi all
Hope this all makes sense.
I have an old mac mini which has pretty much become redundant since I got my i7 workstation so I decided to run it as a NAS.
I'm able to run Xpenology/DSM on it but after a lot of reading and watching have decided that TrueNAS is the better way to go in the long run.
So... I've burned the TN12 iso to USB and tried to install it directly to the Mac mini and it gets me as far as asking which drive to install to... it seems to hit an error and stop at this point.
It does, however, install onto the same hardware as a virtual machine and seems to work just fine (haven't really had much time to test her out fully).
Is there something I'm overlooking?
I thought it should run in the bare-metal as it runs in the VM or is this not guaranteed?
I'll try to get the exact error message
