I most definitely hate to submit this post. Partly because I'm an UnRaid newbie, but mostly because I'm both an UnRaid and Linux newbie.
I had endless problems trying to boot Unraid last week. I wasn't sure if my boot device wasn't selected correctly, or all my USB stick(s) decided to quit on the same day. I wish I had taken better notes, but my belief is the USB Creator has taken on some new updates, that are maybe not so compatible with older systems? Syslinux ?
For me anyway, it seemed if I created a USB stick with Rufus specifying Syslinux 4.x, and copied the UnRaid install files over, it would boot for me and install UnRaid.
Hope this post helps to point you in the right direction.
