INTRODUCTION For those who have or currently use Jailmaker , we know that the project is EOL and has no maintainer (Thank you for all your effort @Jip-Hop !). It provided an easy solution for creating jails using systemd-nspawn. This was useful for creating highly customizable environments that are …

I just came to say goodbye. It’s been a fun ride. I started with FreeNAS 8.3 and my server was updated and upgraded to 25.04.2.1. I have finished my migration to Proxmox, just a few more details to figure out, but overall it was a pretty smooth transition based on the migration plan I wrote up. Ma…

Thank you BTW. I’m pretty efficient at systems, but I’m still learning to muddle my way around TN’s API’s and middleware.

Maybe i’m just dumb, but how the hell are you supposed to get nvidia drivers to work with an incus container when you’ve created it with the truenas gui and not from shell? Do we have to use the Environment field to add these: nvidia.driver.capabilities nvidia.require.cuda nvidia.require.driver nvi…

You can’t currently. It still needs to be built in to Instances. You can modify the docker-init-nvidia.yaml in the OP to do whatever you need and it will work with Nvidia. Those are config options, see that config in the OP.

well if the option to passthrough a gpu already exists, why wasn’t the option to get the drivers into the container exposed? this really puts me off from migrating from jailmaker to incus.

I would add it as a feature request: Expose Incus Config Options in TrueNAS UI Otherwise for now, just spin up a machine based on that config. I can help you tweak it with only the Nvidia stuff if you don’t need Docker. Let me know.

[image] In 25.04.1 we have added a fake user account in API responses to allow assigning permissions to the root account in unprivileged containers (creatively named “truenas_container_unpriv_root”). This means if you mount a dataset in a container, and you need the root account in the container t…

Hello, My goal isn’t to argue, but to understand why there are different directives for seemingly similar things. For Docker, there are Truenas Portainer and Dockge applications in the catalog, which are graphical interfaces for managing Docker other than the Truenas UI. For Incus, there is a nat…
