Upgrade through webgui

[servingitup]

Hi,

Up to now I have been installing and upgrading the full version to a 64Gb SSD from a usb stick. I'm bored of having to stick the install image on the usb stick, going behind the server, plugging it in, etc. I just want to be able to upgrade through the webgui. As I understand this is only possible on the embedded install and not the full version. So can I stick the embedded install on the SSD?

yes you can install the embedded version onto the SSD. I just did this on one of my systems

thanks for the quick reply crowi. I'm off to do it now

and if you don't have a SSD the embedded OS can be installed on most any bootable medium.
I have used a small Hdd and they boot embedded fine. Just "install" the HDD to the OS but do not "mount"
set it to spin down after five minutes. it will spin up for config changes, presumably upgrade changes too.

another thing that works if one does not wish to waste a drive connection.
industrial [IDE connected} flash or SSD in a USB Hdd case.

what ever works with the hardware one has [YMMV]

you can upgrade full install to embeded , is one of the selectable optrions in the install menu.
