Hello, can I ask which tool do I have to use in order to copy the image to a Sata HDD? I have used HDD Raw Copy Tool but when I start the HDD in the rig I get this message and it hangs:
Scanning for btrfs filesystems
MMP_base: clean, 61027/244320 files, 607975/980731 blocks.

Hello,
We recommend usage of etcher because it can write image without uncompressing it first but after being uncompressed it can be written with hdd raw copy too.
From what I see you are already booting the system but amdgpufb can't switch because your monitor doesn't support native resolution switching, as a workaround you can use built-in GPU or boot headless with autoconf.txt placed in small exfat partition. I will update first post with additional qucik FAQ.
Yes I am booting from an old 1366 Asus motherboard with no built in GPU as a Vega test bench. I have uncrompressed the image with 7z and then I have used HDD Raw Copy to copy the image file to the HDD. I have another motherboard but is an old 775 with built in GPU (G41 Chipset). It is preferable to use the 775 with built in GPU instead of the 1366 one?
All AMD hardware after Polaris need displaycore enabled to boot in gfx environment, due to Vega being superior ASIC you can boot headless as an option. It will boot properly without any display attached. We have disabled Displaycore support because otherwise the first GPU that has attached monitor will suffer some hash loss. But if needed it will be returned in image.
Please try booting headless with autoconf.txt inside small exfat partition.
Hello, I have sucessfully booted headless with the autoconf.txt in the small partition. Is there any tutorial for configuring the system for Team Red Miner and Vegas for use them with Monero? Since I have not found so much information regarding Monero pools, etc.
Regards.

Great! From now on you can do all from your dashboard. Usually starting from right->left for initial configuration.
Add your wallet, Add pool(mind that different pools have different configurations for username), Add miner profile for XMR(we recommend using teamredminer) and finally assign your rig the miner profile you've created.
Can give you example for xmrpool.eu pool:
Select monero coin(XMR), select your XMR wallet
pool host: xmrpool.eu
pool port: 9999
ssl enabled: yes
In username section when creating pool write this
%wallet_address%.%rig_name%+50000
Last line is static diff sent to pool.
In miner profiles advanced settings leave default or use --cn_config from known good working configuration(else ssh to rig and run benchmark first).
You can also add additional line in advanced settings "--watchdog_script /opt/mmp/sbin/" to enable automatic reboot on GPU failure.
For more instructions I advise you to join our discord or telegram channels.
Thank you for choosing MMP OS
