This is a fresh install of FreeNAS, and I do not know what I am doing. My understanding is I am supposed to install the FreeNAS .iso onto a CD or a USB drive, boot off that drive, and install FreeNAS onto a different USB drive. I have installed the FreeNAS .iso image on two different USB sticks and burned it to a CD. All my optical drives are IDE, and my motherboard only supports SATA, so I used a USB converter to boot off the CD. I tried both version 11 x64 images and the released version 10 x64. I am able to boot and to start the install. Then I get several errors.
ACPI BIOS Warning (bug): Optional FADT field Pm2ControlBlock has valid Lenght but zero Address: 0x00
Module_register_init: MOD_LOAD (vesa, 0xffffffff80fa9d40, 0) error 19
I'm not sure which error is significant.
I spent hours on this yesterday, so I have tried creating images six ways from Sunday. I created my boot disks using Windows 10 using both ImageWriter and Rufus. The MS USB/DVD Download Tool says the .iso is not valid. I can't boot when I burn an .iso with Rufus, but I can when I burn a DD. I cannot find a legacy setting in my BIOS.
Any help is much appreciated.
