The flash drive MUST be formatted FAT32 or it will not mount properly, resulting in a non working Unraid. Formatting as FAT32 is covered in the instructions. https://wiki.unraid.net/Articles/Getting_Started#Manual_Method_.28Legacy.29 Quote Link to comment
Holmesware Posted March 3, 2021 Author Share Posted March 3, 2021 When you try and make the disk bootable it gives this message. The assumption is NTFS would be valid, but that is for Make Bootable script only. I also read somewhere that NTFS is needed for UEFI boot, but I can't find that part now. Thanks for clearing it up, I'm amazed that it booted as well. Quote Link to comment
