FreeNAS-11.3-U3.2 wont install on SSD

[zemun2]

I have been stuck on this for good 30 min, also tried multiple USB drives both 2.0 and 3.0.
ISO file is installed via ILO4 virtual CD drive.

Thanks

Try to install to a USB drive without swap on the boot disk. If that succeeds you can then move the installation over while the system is up and running. I can help you with that.

No matter if I select create swap or no swap it's still the same. This is what I get when select no swap.

 

[Patrick M. Hausen]

Have you tried USB without swap?

 

[zemun2]

Yes,

This is what I get when installing 11.1 U7

Are you sure you're installing on the USB device? Usually they have names like da0. ada devices are attached to SATA ports.

 

[zemun2]

This is to SSD, also tried 3 different USB's

 

[zemun2]

Is there any special settings that should be changed in BIOS?

 

[Samuel Tai]

Did you check the ISO file against its SHA256 hash before using it?

 

[zemun2]

How do I do that?

 

[Samuel Tai]

The correct hash is available at http://download.freenas.org/11.3/STABLE/U3.2/x64/FreeNAS-11.3-U3.2.iso.sha256. This is just a text file you can view in Notepad. You can use PowerShell to verify the ISO file's hash using Get-FileHash <path to ISO>. If the ISO's hash doesn't match the correct hash, you have a corrupt download, and should redownload the ISO and verify again.

 

[zemun2]

It matches.

I've never much luck with the iLO remote media. Try writing the ISO to a USB 2.0 stick, and booting the installer from that.

 

[zemun2]

I'll give it a shot.

Installing OMW just to see if that works and so far it's all good.

You were correct sir, finally got pass that point via USB install disk.
