I have been trying to load UNRaid on a 32 Gig USB Stick from My Linux (Debian) box.  I have syslinux installed on my linux system.

 

I have  searched for installing instructions, but all I have found are several years old.

 

The following is what I have come up with:

 

 

Procedure Used To Submit For Help

 

 

 

Download UNRaid Zip File 6.8.3

 

Save To Download shemp_software/unraid-6.8.3

 

Unzip File (unzip unRAIDServer-6.8.3x86_64.zip)

 

Format USB Drive As Fat 32 (Using disk program) (Takes About 30 Sec.)

 

Name = UNRAID (All In Caps)

 

Mount UNRAID USB Stick

 

cd /media/gemckee/UNRAID

 

cp -rf shemp_sotware/unraid-6.8.3/* ./

 

 

Open Linux Terminal (Not On USB Drive)

 

cd ~

 

sudo umount UNRAID (sudo umount /media/gemckee/UNRAID)

 

Open Folder Where UNRaid Files Were Unzipped (shemp_software/unraid-6.8.3)

 

sudo bash make_bootable_linux

 

Check Weather Or Not To Use UEFI (No) (Or N, Makes No Difference)

 

If Failed, Run Again

 

Remove USB Stick

 

Install In New Machine & boot to USB stick. Get “BOOTMGR is missing message”

 

 

When I put the USB stick in  the future UNRAID machine I receive the message
BOOTMGR missing

 

The machine will boot other USB sticks.

 

Any specific suggestions on what I am doing wrong is appreciated. 

 

Thanks

Well it looks like nobody had suggestions for solving my problem.  I was using Debian 8.xx so I tried to setup the USB stick on a different machine running Debian 10 and the stick does kind of boot up.  It is recognized, but does not fully boot UNRaid, but that if for further investigation so I will close  this out.
