herculepirate Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 I have a DELL T320 and this is the first time I am trying out Unraid. I have tried 2 USB 3.0 sticks. one is 32GB (USB3.2) and the other is a 16GB (USB3.0). Both have failed to boot through the USB. The BIOS is in UEFI mode. and error and it comes back as a not compatible bootable media. I have tried a LINUX MINT bootable usb and it loads fine. Please help Quote Link to comment
ChatNoir Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 If there is a EFI- directory on the flashdrive, remove the trailing - and try booting again. Quote Link to comment
herculepirate Posted April 9, 2022 Author Share Posted April 9, 2022 (edited) That worked and was able to boot into the UNRAID menu. But I get a command line error that says Loading /bzimage...ok Bad file number Loading /bzroot...ok Failed to allocate memory for kernel command line, bailing oout Edited April 9, 2022 by herculepirate Quote Link to comment
itimpi Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 That can mean that the system is having problems reading one of the bz* type files on the flash drive. Typically the fix is to download the .zip file for the release and then extract all the bz* type files overwriting the ones on the flash drive. Quote Link to comment
herculepirate Posted April 9, 2022 Author Share Posted April 9, 2022 Thank you @itimpi How do I get the image because right not I download the USB creator and let it do its magic on the USB. Where can I find the image itself and how do I get the bz* files. Do you think I should try the v6.10 with my primary server ? Quote Link to comment
itimpi Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 You can get the 'stable' releases from the Unraid download page. For the latest 6.10.0-rc4 the link is https://unraid-dl.sfo2.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/next/unRAIDServer-6.10.0-rc4-x86_64.zip Quote Link to comment
herculepirate Posted April 9, 2022 Author Share Posted April 9, 2022 @itimpi Exactly same error again with the extraction of all the bz files Quote Link to comment

herculepirate Posted April 9, 2022 Author Share Posted April 9, 2022 When I ran a system check, I came across this result. Is it that the RAM is bad ? Cause there is no ECC setting in the BIOS Quote Link to comment
herculepirate Posted April 11, 2022 Author Share Posted April 11, 2022 Does not seem to be the Server RAM cause I did change to a new RAM and it didnt work. Same error. Any help ? Quote Link to comment
Bubz Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 Same problem, how did you solve it? Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 Try disabling UEFI and booting in legacy/CSM mode instead. Quote Link to comment
