DavidTMT Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 Hi there! I started my first Unraid server 2 days ago and faced my first challenges !!! It boots well only if I go through the BIOS and "save changes and reset". But it doesn't boot at all if I don't go through the Bios. Why is that? I did the disk assignment and parity sync with no issue. Then I installed sunlightprime-diagnostics-20220405-2057.zip Quote Link to comment
preference Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 I didn't read your diagnostics, but I faced a similar issue on a Z590 / B560 chipset. I use the Intel i5-11400 as a CPU. Unraid would never boot directly. I had to go into BIOS to choose the boot device, which would work every time. I fixed this by turning off 'fast boot' options in the BIOS. After turning off fast boot, the boot-up process took longer, but I boot into Unraid every time. I strongly suggest giving this a shot. I also updated my BIOS, but I don't think that's what fixed the problem. Quote Link to comment

Rich Posted July 8, 2023 Share Posted July 8, 2023 After 10 hours of troubleshooting post upgrading my server, this was the solution i needed. Thank you so much for posting, you've allowed me a good nights sleep after a crappy day. Quote Link to comment
SciKo Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 I'd also like to chime in here and inform that Fast Boot was indeed my issue as well. Nothing less than disabling it fully ended in a successful outcome. Thank you kindly for sharing this! Quote Link to comment
Computron Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 Also chiming in here and had the same issue with my ASUS B660M-A D4. Weirdly this doesn't happen on a Gigabyte Z690 motherboard. Adding this to improve search: asus usb boot must change port every time unraid Quote Link to comment
