Usb key not bootable

[thegrunge]

Hi, it's been 2 times that I create an unraid usb key to try the product, but it is not recognized at startup. Yet other system keys like ubuntu work very well at startup. I created the key with your software and and on mac. What am I not understanding?

 

Thank you

The USB Creator tool has some known issues.  I would suggest you utilize the manual method.  https://wiki.unraid.net/Manual/Changing_The_Flash_Device#Manual_Method

I have never used unraid, this procedure seems to be to redo a new key?

I just did the procedure on linux, I will try, but I have this error.

 

sudo bash ./make_bootable_linux
INFO: make_bootable_linux v1.3

It is covered in the Getting Started guide (username root)

Ok thanks, I'm trying to do the procedure on my mac now, but the key is still not bootable. Yet it is even simpler

I tried more than once on my mac and on 2 different macs the key is not bootable with the procedure for mac.. I then continued the linux procedure on my pc and I threw in the towel the login does not work in non-gui mode and I have a black screen in gui mode.
