I've been searching google and forums all night it feels.
I'm new to this HP Proliant G8 server, I have downloaded TrueNAS v13 as an ISO
I have burnt this ISO to a USB key using both `dd` on Linux and balenaEtcher on Mac. It doesn't seem to matter which USB slot I plug the drive into, I CANNOT get this server to detect and install from it.
I have switched the SATA controller to AHCI mode, and I read that the USB needed to be formatted with ISOLINUX.
I am not sure what else to try. All I want to do is install an OS on here, and I'm stuck. I'll be honest, Ive installed all manner of OS via different methods, but this is my first server with built in RAID type tech. So could be punching above my grade a bit.
Anyone got any advice or links whatsoever? I'm not computer illiterate, but I don't tend to dabble in the BIOS of a PC much, apart from changing boot orders, and simple things like that.
Many thanks, in advance people...
