Actually, freenas 0.8 fell into the hands of a problem to install iperf, with simple googling I find the command pkg_add -r iperf , where -r means to install iperf from the repository, but in the frinas root is mounted only for reading: freenas2 # mount / dev / ufs / FreeNASs1a on / (ufs, local, soft-updates) devfs on / dev (devfs, local, multilabel) / dev / md0 on / etc (ufs, local) / dev / md1 on / mnt (ufs, local) / dev / md2 on / var (ufs, local) / dev / ufs / FreeNASs4 on / data (ufs, local, soft-updates) data on / mnt / data (zfs, local)
The existing solutions I found are based on all sorts of chroot and unionfs and were quite stressful.
Actually treated by the team: mount -o rw / dev / ufs / FreeNASs1a / ')
And voila any software you can put pkg_add -r.
