Upgrade 9.0.0.1 to latest version

Post by Fireater »

I wish to upgrade 9.001 (full install) to latest version. its running on some old hardware with a 40 gig hdd as the os drive and 2- 1 TB hdd in raid for the storage. will an upgrade from the cd work or should i just start fresh and recreate all my shares from a fresh install?

Please read the readme: viewtopic.php?f=78&t=10521

Copy & Paste:

NAS4Free Upgrade from below 9.3.0.2.1310 is NOT possible!!!
=====================================================
Upgrading NAS4Free "Embedded" or "Full" from any version below 9.3.0.2.1310 by webgui or from
LiveCD/USB is problematic, due a new size of boot partition & partition layout.
Please download and save your NAS4Free config to a safe place and backup all files from second
partition if you use boot disk as data disk.
INSTALL FROM SCRATCH IS THE ONLY WAY!
12.1.0.4 - Ingva (revision 7743) on SUPERMICRO X8SIL-F 8GB of ECC RAM, 11x3TB disk in 1 vdev = Vpool = 32TB Raw size , so 29TB usable size (I Have other NAS as Backup)
