New Motherboard (Supermicro A1SAM-2550F) can't install to USB Memory Stick

[dobler]

Hello,

When I load the installer it reports no drives found. I've tried forcing the usb to be detected as a hard drive in bios. I've also tried different USB memory sticks. The port is usb 2.0. Is there something I am missing? Or is it a driver issue?

Hardware specs? What type of disk controller?

Also, are you saying that the installer does not boot at all or the installation starts and cannot find any media to install to? Are you installing from USB or CD? If USB, do you have a second USB stick to install into?

As an alternative, boot the installer via IPMI by mounting the ISO in the Java viewer.

Thanks guys for the responses. I ended up returning the board as there was actually something wrong with the USB controller. The new board works great!
