Hi
Trying to build my third FreeNas box.
Server is new HP Microserver Gen8. 16 GB HP ECC Ram. (ouch.)
Downloaded FreeNAS-9.3-STABLE-201602031011.iso, hash is correct.
Burned to two different USB thumb drives with UnetBootin (Linux), and booted server.
Eventually get to a blue screen offering "Default" or "FreeNAS installer".
At that point things die. Default just loops, while FreeNas option flashes a message at the bottom about failing because it can't find ubninit (I think ... it's very fast).
Am I doing something wrong, or is there a problem with that particular release?
All the walkthroughs I found via Google show a Grub boot screen, and I don't have that...
BIOS is set to boot from USB. Have not fiddled otherwise with server (ILO/RAID conf/whatever).... pure vanilla out the box.
Any ideas gratefully received
Thanks, Ian
