First I am really new to Truenas (coming from window envir). Trying to set up a really simple VM using Linux Mint.
I followed a couple videos from Youtube. I get stuck on the same step on both videos... I downloaded and put an ISO on my nas. The went through the setup. Then at one point i am supposed to click on a button ('Display' I think) to trigger the iso to install. But when I click on the display button nothing happens.

Am I missing something on my VM set up?

And what do i put for the CPU model (running 12th gen intel). I didn't see an Alder Lake option (not supported?).

Attached is my VM set up. Appreciate your feedback/advice. :smile:

You can use the mode Host Model.

when I click on the display button nothing happens.
That should be launching another browser window or tab with the IP of the NAS for NoVNC display of that VM.

If that doesn't work, you can try to VNC to the NAS IP on port 5900 instead.

Browser... thank you for tip. Nailed it! I watched the URL when I clicked the Display button. 100% right... it was trying to open up another tab in my browser, but it was being pop-up blocked. I clicked allow and bamm, worked like a charm. Awesome! Thank you.
