Thanks for the post. This was exactly my problem. I had added nomodeset to syslinux.cfg when trying to get my iKVM console to stop blinking. After I removed it my Sparkle Intel Arc A310 started working in Unraid.

Hi guys, first of all thanks the amazing plugin DLandon. I found something strange while pre-clearing my SAS drives. I have never been able to use the resume option after reboot and today tried to figure out why. Although I can resume my pre-clear and resume it from the web interface (see attached screenshots), it never gives me the option to resume after a reboot. Reading up on this forum post I checked /var/log/preclear.log, which states that the pre-clear has been paused. root@Unraid:/var/log/preclear# tail -f preclear.log Feb 10 10:12:07 Preclear script invoked as: /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/unassigned.devices.preclear/scripts/preclear_disk.sh --notify 4 --frequency 4 --cycles 1 --skip-preread --skip-postread --no-prompt /dev/sds Feb 10 10:12:08 preclear_disk_PBGK10SX_26298: Preclear Disk Version: 1.0.29 Feb 10 10:12:08 preclear_disk_PBGK10SX_26298: Disk size: 4000787030016 Feb 10 10:12:08 preclear_disk_PBGK10SX_26298: Disk blocks: 7814037168 Feb 10 10:12:08 preclear_disk_PBGK10SX_26298: Blocks (512 bytes): 7814037168 Feb 10 10:12:08 preclear_disk_PBGK10SX_26298: Block size: 512 Feb 10 10:12:08 preclear_disk_PBGK10SX_26298: Start sector: 0 Feb 10 10:12:10 preclear_disk_PBGK10SX_26298: Zeroing: zeroing the disk started 1 of 5 retries...
