Setting up Rocky 9 as a fresh install?

General
1

I received a new HL15 Beast, Proart Verison, and immedately after applying all of the updates to the OS, the ZFS module stops working and I cannot figure out how to get it to load again. I’ve tried changing back to older kernels, manually removing and reinstalling it via DKMS by following the docs on the website, couldn’t get it to go.

So then I installed Rocky 9 fresh, and ran the setup script here - curl -SLO https://scripts.45drives.com/rocky9-preconfig.sh && bash rocky9-preconfig.sh. This works, and Cockpit and all of the modules come back, ZFS works, however, the Houston splash screen, and the custom homelab links are now just the default Cockpit ones.

What’s the best way to get this thing back to how it was when it came out of the box?

While I don’t have the HL15 Beast, I was able to install Rocky 9.6 fresh from the DVD-ISO image and add all the 45 Drives packages including their updates for NFS and SMB.

from what I posted on an earlier thread Hutch confirmed that most items should be ok on the initial install.

While I don’t think having a package list is going to help, what are all the cockpit packages?

do you see any of the 45Drives left side navigation? image attached
