I've tried several times to install FreeNAS 9.3 beta on a 32GB USB stick. I burned the ISO to a DVD and stuck it into a test server machine. It booted from the DVD drive and detected the hard drives as well as the USB stick. I then selected the USB stick as the drive to install the OS too. It then proceeded and said complete. remove the disc from the drive and reboot. Everything is fine to this point.
Once I reboot it doesn't get past post. No matter how many times I reboot nor wherever USB port I put the USB stick too. Once I remove the stick, the machine boots fine. I then put the USB stick on my windows machine and it detects the USB stick as a 512kb drive when is obviously a 32GB drive. Even when I format the drive it says 512kb capacity. So I then DISKPART the USB stick and get it back to 32GB and proceed the same procedure in installing FreeNAS again and I get the same problem.
What I'm I doing wrong?
