Hi!
I notice that i aint the only one with this problem since i have looked through like 10 different threads about it but here we go!
I'm totally new too FreeNAS and when i have installed it to my usbdrive and reboot nothing happens. I have gone through the steps so many times that im starting to loose my mind and every time the installation process is completed and the FreeNAS installation says something like "reboot your computer and remove the cd/installation media" i have followed the instructions and when the pc boot up it cant find any OS.
The things i have tried so far:
A bucketful of different usb drives.
I have tried FreeNAS 9.10, 9.3 and 9.2.1.9
I have used a CD as installation media
I have used win32 and Rufus as installer for the .ISO file
I have used Active@ KillDisk on the usb drives
I have formatted the usb drives as FAT32 and NTFS
Several (if not all) usb ports on the computer that is supposed to be the NAS
I have disabled nearly all features in the BIOS
I have used MBR pratition scheme for BIOS or UEFI-CSM and GPT partition for UEFI for preparing the usb drive in Rufus
I have booted the installation USB drive in legacy and UEFI
I have set the boot order to the correct setting
I have probably done more but i cant think of anything else right now
The hardware in the computer is:
* FreeNAS version - 9.10, 9.3 and 9.2.1.9
* Motherboard (Model) - aahd2-hy
* CPU (Model) - AMD A4-3400
* RAM Size (in GB and model) - 1x8GB (i think its kingston) 1600MHz DDR3
If there is anything else you would like to know to help me, please tell!
I have also gone through the 9.10 manuals "2.4 installation troubleshooting" ( http://doc.freenas.org/9.10/ )
Thanks in advance!
