This is when I try to run the installer. Over IPMI, on a Supermicro X11SSM-F motherboard. (specs in sig)
Waiting long enough, it pops up "random: unblocking device".
I have a OCZ 4gb USB drive I'm installing from, to a 16gb mushkin USB drive.
I have another 16gb mushkin that I tried installing from FIRST, but ran into weird similar problems (it always hangs on this screen with various messages). So to make things simpler I moved to install from the OCZ.
My end goal is to have the installation mirrored on the two mushkin drives. But that's a future challenge.
Now, I reckon there's something wrong with the 16gb flash drive. GPT table is corrupt?
Problem is, I don't know how to prepare a USB drive for being totally clean and ready to install onto. I'm guessing that's the issue at least.
I've done the following at least, in Windows.
diskpart
select disk=(the disk id)
clean
convert mbr
create partition primary
And from what I can tell in Windows drive manager it turns into a pretty raw unallocated partition. I've also tried skipping the partition part.
Any idea?
I bought the exact memory after recommendation for FreeNAS on the storage reddit.
