I have an old 1tb hdd that used to be part of a freenas array years ago.
I want to use it as the primary disk (boot disk) for a new Win7 box I'm building.
I deleted all the partitions, made one partition primary and active, reimaged it with Win7 OS (successfully) but STILL when I try to boot from this disk BIOS displays an error "This is a FreeNAS data disk and can not boot system"
I'm wondering how in the world this disk can know its life history when I've deleted all the partitions, repartitioned it, and cloned it.
I DID find a small (2 mb) partition lingering on this disk and wiped it with zeroes, but still it's holding on to its previous identity.
Ideas?
