UTM Home on Retired ASG 120 hardware

Is it possible to re-task a retired ASG 120 for home use using the free home license offered by Astaro/Sophos? If so what is the method for wipeing and installing the home version on the old ASG? I have tried installing (via the smart_installer thumb drive) the hardware appliance image and it wouldn't accept the home user license. I then tried to install the software appliance via the smart installer and it wouldn't install due to Sophos Hardware.

Any suggestions? I would really like to recycle some ASG 120's that we upgraded for use at my mom, my father-in law and my mother-in law's homes to have our own little backup cloud and file sharing network.

Sascha,
I don't have a usb DVD/CDROM available. I renamed the /etc/asg to /etc/oldasg and the installed via the SSI: asg-9.000-8.1-ASI-V2.zip onto the ASG120. When I try ti install my home license it gives me the can't install license on 1*** device error.

I can try to to a unetbootin install onto the HDD but what is the best way to format the disk clean via the currently installed UTM install or during the USB/unetbootn ISO install?
