Bash – Raspberry Pi – OpenMediaVault – Network Storage

| | | |

Start out with a headless (no GUI) Raspberry Pi OS (Raspbian)
With the SD Card still mounted in your computer, create a ssh file to start with SSH enabled (Note: no extension, no text)

touch ssh

After a few seconds of letting the SD Card load in the Raspberry Pi find the IP and SSH into it

Start with updating the OS

sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade

Install OpenMediaVault (Note: This install will take a few minutes depending on version of Pi and network speed)

wget -O - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OpenMediaVault-Plugin-Developers/installScript/master/install | sudo bash
hostname -I

Make sure you remember the IP address of the Raspberry Pi

sudo reboot

Open the Web GUI URL: (IP address of Raspberry Pi)
(The default username is admin, and the default password is openmediavault.)

Change the default password:
General Settings -> Web Administrator Password
