Hello all.
Not shure if this is Installation or Hardware forum ...
Trying to install freeNAS on my Thinkpad W520 i7-2820. Boot from CD to start installer works fine, and I have no trouble with installing freeNAS on a UDB Flash attached to the PC. After installation, then I restart and tries to boot from USB Flash, but nothing happens.
I have of cource set the BIOS to boot from USB Flash, but the boot seems to just loop without any try to execute the freeNAS from USB Flash.
Have also tried to install directly to one of the SSD disk on the Thinkpad, but the same happens, the boot process just returns to the boot device menu.
Have tried to turn off as much as possible devices in the BIOS, but no luck.
Where do I start to resolve this ? freeNAS DO really boot from the installation PC, so it should be possible to run freeNAS on that machine ?
