Sophos XG 85 hardware install Home Licence

I have researched this and found that Sophos doesn’t allow you to use the home license on the actual hardware.

My question is how do I format the drive on the XG 85 so I can then install the home version? I seen that people used gparted, but I was having a hard time finding the usb. I was able to somewhat locate it here: /bus/isb/001/003 or something like that. Maybe I’m doing this wrong.

Can someone please give me a guide on how to format this drive?

Thanks!

Hi,

please run a search of the forum, there are at least two detailed threads on the subject.

Not sure why you would choose a XG85, you will run into disk space issues very quickly.

I have searched the forums and didn't find a detailed walkthrough.

Can you link them if possible?
