I have a Supermicro X9DRL-iF with 32GB of ram and dual Xeons. I've downloaded the iso, verified it, and attempted installation from multiple usb flash drives to SSD. No matter what I do it won't boot past middlewared. I've tried running the installation in both UEFI/Legacy as well as the SSD. Multiple reboots sometimes it loads plugins sometimes it doesn't. Suggestions?

Maybe a BIOs udpate might help .. or install onto an SSD on another PC and then put the drive in your server and see if it boots properly.

try a different program to make your installer .. like https://www.balena.io/etcher/

Thanks for your reply!

That was the first thing I checked, bios is up to date.

I'm actually already using etcher for my usb install disk. It runs fine and I'm able to install the OS on my SSD, but the SSD never finishes booting up.. Maybe I wasn't clear, does that help?
