Hello everyone!
Well I've been trying to figure out some stuff about my server for a while, and I'm guessing this is the first thing that needs to be tackled. I think that the boot problem comes from it being installed on a hdd. It is installed there because it has a mac motherboard. (the efi won't allow boot through usb without much hassle).
I have other problems too, like it cannot be updated through any means except a fresh install.

I have included dsmsg and debug. But there was a power outage yesterday and now it repeats something new in the log / terminal thingy so i guess it will be all over the debug file too.



System:
FreeNAS-9.3-STABLE-201505130355
Dual xeon x5482 3.2 ghz quad core processor
16gb ecc buffered 800mhz
Apple specific motherboard built on the intel 5400 chipset.
4x 1tb SAMSUNG HD103UJ 1AA01109

Edit: added files.

Nevermind. Got it going.
Now all i have to deal with is finding out what might be causing this:
freenas syslog-ng[1734]: Error opening file for writing; filename='/dev/console', error='Device not configured (6)'
But i will post somewhere else on the forum if i can't figure it out myself.
