Wasn't sure whether to post here or in the install forum, but since I saw some other Supermicro threads I figured I'd find more seasoned sysadmins here.
I have a 1U Supermicro box that been sitting around collecting dust in the garage because IT packrat. It has an X7DBU board, two dual core Xeon 5050s and 16GB RAM. It's got a few miles on it but still a stable system. Prior to pulling the 600GB WD Raptors for Reds, it happily ran Win 2K8. Older, but still 64bit.
During install, I get to a point where it shows installing some x86 compatibility something or another and reboots. This is with the latest stable 9.10 release installing from thumbdrive to thumbdrive. I've tried installing from and to different USB drives to see if that would make a difference, but nay. I'd thought about trying a spare SSD but I don't have anywhere to pull power unless I use a dual USB to SATA adapter. The missus is getting tired of listening to Xeon fans so I need to regroup before trying again. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
