Hello,
After toying with a TrueNAS CORE installed in an old PC, I bought new hardware for a new server, but TrueNAS CORE won't install…
I tried the 13.0-U6 but it always stuck with a black screen with a white cursor. In normal console mode the last message is:
My hardware:
- ASRock H610M-ITX/ac (I don't plan to use their wifi things)
- Intel Core i3 12100 (integrated GPU)
- 2×8Gb DDR4 Lexar
- M2 250Gb PNY
- and 4 HDD of 4Tb each
- during installation there were the 8Gb usb stick and 1 usb for keyboard+mouse (the logitech in the verbose output)
I tried several OS. All TrueNAS BSD were stuck, all Linux succeed without any issues and FreeBSD proceed the installation:
- FreeNAS-11.2-U8.iso
- FreeNAS-11.3-U3.iso
- FreeNAS-11.3-U5.iso
- TrueNAS-12.0-U1.iso
- TrueNAS-13.0-U6.iso
- TrueNAS-13.1-MASTER-202311280816-a0b2df9.iso
- TrueNAS-SCALE-23.10.0.1.iso
- ubuntu-22.04.3-desktop-amd64.iso
- ubuntu-22.04.3-live-server-amd64.iso
- FreeBSD-14.0-RELEASE-amd64-bootonly.iso
I think of 3 possibles explanations:
- hardware incompatible with TrueNAS CORE, which I find strange (if it requires a separated GPU for example)
- I didn't wait enough, perhaps the installation is very slow and stuck for more than 15min for a strange reason
- I didn't configured the BIOS correctly, but even there I tried and didn't see any option to change.
Does someone have a clue?
I really prefer TrueNAS CORE over SCALE, even if I can install more tools in a Linux machine than BSD…
