FreeNAS 11 fresh install on HP Microserver Gen 8 boots to grub rescue

[rosettas]

I have installed FreeNAS 11 on microserver's HDD without mistake.

The microserver information:

Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU G1610T @ 2.30GHz
DIMM DDR3 4096 MB 1600 MHz


After booting the microserver reports no system disk, then jump to grub rescue:

Attempting Boot From Hard Drive (C: )
GRUB loading..

error: no such partition.
Entering rescue mode...
grub rescue>

Any suggestion?

A little more information about where the OS is installed may be helpful. Did you install to a USB and try booting from there or have you installed FreeNAS to a hard drive ?

I'm not familiar with that microserver but I think it does allow booting from internal USB, which will be the preferred method. That way you will have all of your installed hard drives available to you for storage.

Also, your RAM is a little on the low side. I think 8GB will be a minimum. Having only 4GB will not stop your system from booting, however, your pushing the limits of what you can get from the system with only 4GB.
