Install problems: UTM 9.4 on Mintbox 2

Hi,

I'm trying to install UTM 9.4 Home on a Mintbox 2. http://www.fit-pc.com/web/products/mintbox/mintbox-specifications/

It has the standard config except I've replaced the HDD with a brand new Kingston 128GB SSD.

I'm trying to install from a USB-stick, and I've tried to follow these instructions to the dot: https://community.sophos.com/products/unified-threat-management/f/hardware-installation-up2date-licensing/27887/usb-stick-install-solved

The installation goes on for a while but fails with without a specific error message. It just says 'installation failure' and gives the option to write a log file to the USB-drive, which I have done.

Please see install.zip that I wrote to the memory-stick when the installation failed. This is apparently a file that could contain vital info and is an option that you choose to perform when the installation fails.

install.zip

So, I need some help to overcome this, please :-)

Posting two screenshots from the installation failure

It's complaining about a missing file, plymouth-plugin-script.... Anyone that can shed some more light on this, please?

So, installation finally completed? The advantage of having an active cable connected is you know which port to login to to start setup.

XG115W - v20.0.2 MR-2 - Home

XG on VM 8 - v21 GA

Yeah, I finally made it. I changed ISOtoUSB-program, used the one in this post: http://martinsblog.dk/sophos-utm-install-hw-appliances-from-usb-stick/

Seems like the first ISOtoUSB-tool I used left out some files, or at least didn't do the job properly.

But all for nothing! Seems like the Mintbox 2 sucks as a firewall. Every time I do a speed test the speed just goes down and down and collapses. I experience a full network stop and loose connection to the internet. So, for some reason it can't handle any network load. Too bad, I was looking fwd to put my old FW-PC to rest, but now it's back on the job until further notice.
