I have a quite big question. I try to install HexOs on a PC that has a NIC that is not supported by TrueNas. Thats fine because I can build my own driver and install the driver just after boot. But it seems to be something special hapoens on the first boot of HexOs to enable all the Hex extensions of TrueNas. 

Does anybody know or wants to share how to run this again if it fails once?

I'm currently really at a dead end for hexos what is really sad.

That seems weird. I also have an unsupported nic and on 2nd or third boot i just added a usb nic without issue.

That said there might be a couple workarounds that might work for you, if your first boot theory is true.

  1. plug in your boot drive to a pc with a supported nic and reinstall
    1. once you setup your custom driver you can move the boot drive to your server
  2. borrow a usb nic for first boot
