December 22, 2025Dec 22 I'm wanting to install the latest CLI or minimal image for my Helios4 and am on the Helios4 Armbian page. Unless I'm missing something, there appears to only be two variations, but both are labelled as "Desktop" images.. In addition, in the below screenshot you can see a footnote indicating that to install OMV I will need a Bookworm minimal image - which is what I want to do. Am I missing something? Thanks
March 3Mar 3 Does this mean that the latest version on which OMV7 can be installed is the following? https://fi.mirror.armbian.de/oldarchive/helios4/archive/Armbian_25.8.1_Helios4_bookworm_current_6.6.101_minimal.img.xz

I think the OP was looking for helios4. The omv link gives a 404 when removing the 6. There's a helios4 image for 26.2.1 (Trixie?) but I'm not sure it supports OMV. The omv-release-upgrade script says "The system architecture armv7l is not supported.", and the Armbian page says "OMV (OpenMediaVault) can be installed on Armbian Bookworm minimal with armbian-config -> software." Bookworm will be supported for another couple of years (2028-06-30) at least. Sadly, it might be time to consider a replacement.
April 6Apr 6 OMV 8+ doesn't support 32bit architectures anymore (including Helios4). https://forum.openmediavault.org/index.php?thread/58798-helios4-omv-8/ Given it seems to be stuck on kernel 6.6, it does feel like it's on life support unfortunately.
