Hi everyone,
I recently learned about FreeNAS, so I was curious to see if I could get it running on VirtualBox to have a play around with it. I downloaded the 9.2.1.5 64-bit .ISO image and followed these two guides in the documentation to get it installed on my machine. However, during and after start-up I come across seemingly-unrelated errors which have left me stuck.
Firstly, during the start-up it appears to hang a bit, slowly showing these errors:
As far as I'm aware these errors have got to do with the DHCP setup on my local network, but I don't know what to make of them.
Secondly, it outputs the following before showing me the IP address I should connect to:
Thirdly, shortly after it prints "Enter an option from 1-11:", it goes on to print some more messages, a small selection of which are shown below:
Finally, when I attempt afterwards to connect to http://0.0.0.0 on Google Chrome on my Windows 7 PC running the virtual machine, I get a message saying "This webpage is not available".
Could someone kindly give me some advice or explain to me how I should go about resolving these various problems?
