Just started my first FreeNAS, using a USB thumb drive. I want to see if the stuff is right for me.
Anyway, I can access the web GUI and have fiddled around with it abit. Problem is, nothing sticks. No changes are saved and I can't add any drive or even change the admin password. If I didn't know any better, I'd say that the drive was read-only. However, there is no write protect slide on my drive, and the format and use of Win32DiskImager worked fine. One thing I noticed was that there was no option for how much storage should be dedicated to settings storage (compare to the setting in Universal USB Installer).
I don't know if it's important or even relevant, but on the HDD itself is a working Ubuntu install with Amahi. Not that it should be working, since I'm running from the USB drive. I was hoping to format the HDD later on and use it for storage, but at the moment I can't do anything with the FreeNAS.
The system I'm running on is an old ASUS EEE Box, B202. Crappy Atom processor, but it should be fine and the system starts ok.
