Hello everyone. I 've built a server machine made for FreNAS OS .
Machine specs:
Supermicro X11SAE-F motherboard
Intel Xeon 1225 v5 CPU
2x16GB Samsung DDR4 ECC memory
Samsung SSD 128GB PCIE M.2 MZVPV128HDGM-00000
4x WD RED 4TB HDD
Now , the plan is to install FreeNAS onto M.2 PCIE Samsung SSD, the installer recognizes Nvme driver and SSD , the OS installs fine, but than it cannot boot from this SSD. Now i know that in order to have the OS boot from Nvme SSD i need to install the OS in native UEFI mode but the problem is when i switch boot modes to UEFI in BIOS setup , the motherboard doesnt list the DVD . I tried to make bootable pendrive in UEFI(GPT) mode but it didnt recognize it either. So now, the question is - how to make FreeNAS 9.3.1 bootable USB in UEFI (GPT) mode.
