I am looking to install ZimaOS on my old ReadyNas which does not have a GPU. I managed to install Debian and CasaOS through the console but I prefer ZimaOS so I would like to know if there is any option available to install ZimaOS headless.
Sorry, this isn’t supported at the moment, ZimaOS doesn’t provide a headless installation option yet.
For now, you might want to try running it in a virtual machine to get a feel for it first.
I think you should be able to install ZimaOS thru terminal as well, only thing is UEFI boot instead of BIOS which might be not supported on ReadyNas (at least it isn’t on my).

Tom,
Headless means through serial console generally. I am not sure if it can be installed without a GPU present on the server.
I have two Netgear ReadyNas Pro (two bays) and there is no gpu on it.
I was playing and was able to install DietPi linux using a serial connection.
Of course most Debian based distros can be installed through a serial connection because the serial consoles has been enabled. I am wondering if the same can be done for ZimaOS
