I searched and couldn't find this requested already so I thought I'd start a topic.

It would be really nice to have a quick setup pathway in HexOS to start virtualisation on TrueNas. There's a couple of good guides out there for HomeAssistantOS, and a couple of slightly less good guides for setting up Ubuntu (at least based on the ones I've found so far)

It would be good to have a button to do the bulk of the setup.

My specific use case would be an ubuntu server for hosting hobby scale web apps, my own server is cheaper than Heroku! (or Render / Fly.io / Railway etc)

Thanks!

This should be ready in not to distant future:

Read the passage:

Coming Soon
Our upcoming Virtual Machine (VM) Manager aims to simplify traditional and hybrid VM setups. Imagine creating a Windows desktop VM or a dedicated media player with ease—combining physical and virtual hardware for unique use cases.
We’re also planning on making the storage wizard more customizable and adding SMART testing options during setup.

So far i create the VM's in Truenas, and they pop up in Hexos frontpage after creation, are a few bugs, but it works. Only thing i really want, is the ability to use VM's when not on the same network. That is the only thing i really want.
If my VM's break, when they finally release this feature, it's fine and i'm ok with it. We are running an beta.

So far i just run a MECM (Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager) lab on Hexos. And everything works fine. But would love to be able to also connect to it when i'm at work.
