    • I got that too, damn annoying. I already have a Pi5 8GB RAM with latest OS on a 1TB NVMe SSD so why do I want to install a NAS on a MicroSD card? I am running Docker/Portainer so I think the better way is to put a bare debian-based image (without a desktop) in a container and put the NAS on there. Whooooaa if the silly thing comes back and clashes with one of my other containers web dashboard’s port. Can’t these devs write code so we can chaneg ports easily without a silly song and dance messing around with upping and downing yaml files and conf files?
