USB boots ok - but no option to install on HDD
HP Microserver N54
8GB RAM
4 x internal 4TB HDD's - unformatted
1 x internal 128GB SSD HDD on optical sata cable
Goal is to install FreeNAS onto the internal SSD and boot from there.
Created boot USB ok using FreeNAS-8.3.1-RELEASE-p2-x64.img Using Keka and dd on an OS X System
Boots ok from USB stick
can access config web page via IP ok
Monitor attached to N54 shows an 11 item 'Console setup' list focusing on network interface config options
eg: http://doc.freenas.org/index.php/Initial_Setup
What i don't see is the 4 item GUI for installing onto the HDD with the 'install/Upgrade'option
eg: figure 2.3a: http://doc.freenas.org/index.php/Installing_from_CDROM
Some questions:
1. Do I need to download the CD iso instead (ie create boot USB from this, no optical drive at hand)?
2. Do I need to format the HDD I want to install on first?
I can get into shell and /etc and use ./netcli which then shows me the 11 item 'Console setup' ok
3. How can I get via shell to run the 4 item GUI for installing onto the HDD?
4. can I install to SSD from web config page?
