RCC-VE installation

I asked a simple question, if nanobsd wouldn't fit better due to the OS corruption caused by power loss. Perhaps the way I asked it, you took it a different way. It would seem instead of addressing the actual issue, you wanted to dance around your own agenda.
You then chose to be accusatory and make light of "pulling the power" on the system as if I liked to do so. It is called testing. It failed. I added that information so it might help someone else down the road as well as seeing if there is something I might be missing. The question at this time is how this gets addressed.
I would think the whole idea of the forum is to share information so we may all achieve useable systems. None of your answers to my original comments are "helpful" in any way and I'm not really sure why you seem to be taking those comments as some personal attack which is definitely not my intent.

Maybe I missed it in all the banter here, but can someone confirm:
a) Is it possible to get a nanoBSD install onto the internal flash of these boxes?b) If so, is there a published procedure to do it? Is it complicated or easy?
The sun goes down, the battery is old and goes flat, the guy in some remote office just likes pulling the plug,… stuff happens. I like the nanoBSD because I have never yet had a problem as a result of unexpected power loss.

Ain't that the way it usually works. The other day we had a contractor pull the plug on a customers phone system so he could plug in his drill. You never know.If I can figure out some way to do it, I'll post.

Would this post from jimp eventually answer your question? eMMC on SG units
b) If so, is there a published procedure to do it? Is it complicated or easy?
I really think that only very experienced users, the development team or the guys from
netgate or pfSense shop and last but not least with hands on those boxes would be able
to draw a moderate way that is not harming the nand storage and is also running smooth.I like the nanoBSD because I have never yet had a problem as a result of unexpected power loss.
For sure this will be related to the circumstance that the nanoBSD image is mounted "read only"
and there for it would not be something going wrong with this image in my opinion.
