Hello all,
my FreeNAS box doesn't have CDROM, so every time, for upgrade it (currently I have 8.0.2 release) I need to open the box, attach an IDE CDROM reader, burn the new release, upgrade..... and so on....
I read a lot of tutorials on how psychically write a fresh FreeNAS installation on USB device, but, is there a method to write the bootable ISO, to start from USB and then upgrade without CDROM?
I tried several methods, like unetbootin, xboot, SARDU, FlashBoot. All of these apps works for other boot CDs (like Windows, Linux, Acronis products, and so on...), but it fails creating FreeNAS boot device.
Is there also other method to upgrade FreeNAS avoiding the box opening?
