Hi,

Is it possible to run the latest version of OPNsense purely from a USB stick as a hard disk? I heard that many people did it but is it still supported and what do I need to look out for or change within settings to make it run properly?

Thanks

Sure, you can install one or flash the Nano image which is much easier. Some sticks don't work. Some can be slow, but also depends on USB speed of the box.


Cheers,
