Install latest 22.05 image on SG-2440

JPelletier

Hi,

I got the image for my hardware from Netgate ticket, now I'm installing and selected all default options. The installer ask me to select a disk for ZFS Configuration between:

lqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqq ZFS Configuration qqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqk
[ ] dal Generic Ultra HS-COMBO
[ ] label/swap0 GEOM LABEL device

What should I select?

Thanks!

You should select: da1 Generic Ultra HS-COMBO
That is the on board eMMC.

If you have an early SG-2440 it may have a 4GB eMMC which is too small to install ZFS with the default options. I would install UFS in that case.

@stephenw10

Probably, bought it in 2015. Should I use BIOS et UEFI ?

stephenw10

Core boot on the SG-2440 is legacy, it's not UEFI. Use BIOS/MBR.

@stephenw10 Thanks a lot, everything is up and running on latest version
