Why is DietPi-Drive_Manager not supported on VM? Works great with all it's features, at least on my testing VMs. Was there some risk or issue observed?

Was there some risk or issue observed?

It was not compatible pre-v6.x, however, with all the Init and detection improvements to dietpi-drive_manager it should be compatible now.

If you can verify testing, we can enable. My PC has been delayed until next week ☹️

@Fourdee
As all my testing and development of the fsck implementation was done on VM, including many times formatting and using the USB stick with all file system types, I think it can be assumed compatible.

But just to be sure, I will redo some tests with virtual drives instead of real ones, add to VM via USB.

🈯️ Verified functionality with virtual disk as well: Fourdee@e3ebdde
- [ ] Found fdisk and mkfs steps are needed for the drives to be recognized by drive manager. Would be nice if we could implement partition table and initial file system creation as well. (=> 6.9)

Legend, many thanks 👍

Yep, I've been meaning to do this for a long time 👍, required feature I believe.

**v6.8**
(13/05/18)

**Changes / Improvements / Optimizations:**

General | All future DietPi images (v6.8 and onwards), now has serial console enabled by default for the 1st run setup. It will be disabled automatically after first run setup to save on resources, unless 'CONFIG_SERIAL_CONSOLE_ENABLE=1' is set in dietpi.txt: https://github.com/Fourdee/DietPi/issues/1759

General | DietPi.com website: Server has been upgraded to Debian Stretch, featuring HTTPS redirect.

General | FBset is no longer a pre-req package for DietPi systems. This will be removed on fresh installations (not existing, to avoid any package conflicts): https://github.com/Fourdee/DietPi/issues/1716

General | DietPi login script and globals init moved to /etc/profile.d/99-dietpi-login.sh. Ensuring any user on system with sudo permissions can load them. Global commands are also now supported across multiple users, eg: either 'sudo -i G_AGI pacakge' or 'G_SUDO G_AGI package': https://github.com/Fourdee/DietPi/issues/1477

General | G_WHIP*: Improved scaling detection based on character count and line count. We now also calculate character count per line, to determine if additional lines are required against X. In other words, it should be a more 'snug' fit :) https://github.com/Fourdee/DietPi/issues/1740

DietPi-Automation | 'AUTO_SETUP_RAMLOG_MAXSIZE' added to dietpi.txt. Sets max /var/log tmpfs size during 1st run. Requires v6.8 or higher image.

DietPi-LetsEncrypt | Lighttpd: SSL configuration upgrade according to Mozillas SSL generator: https://mozilla.github.io/server-side-tls/ssl-config-generator/?server=lighttpd-1.4.35&openssl=1.0.1t&hsts=yes&profile=intermediate

DietPi-LetsEncrypt | Minor code and error handling improvements, as well increasing transparency of what the script is currently doing: https://github.com/Fourdee/DietPi/pull/1738
