ZeroFcksGiven Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 (edited) I am installing unraid for the first time. Followed the documentation on the website to created a bootable drive. This drive was create using unraid usb creator for MAC. After creating my bootable drive, I went and plugged my usb in a usb2.0 port, made sure it was the first bootable device and made sure vt-d was enable in bios. The device boots up but gets to a part saying “30 sec for device label UNRAID to come online … random: crng init done” and right under that I see - press enter to reboot. If I press enter it will reboot and do the same thing. I tried to recreate the bootable device with no luck. Any help would be appreciated.

trurl Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 Is your flash drive named UNRAID? Quote Link to comment
ZeroFcksGiven Posted August 6, 2022 Author Share Posted August 6, 2022 Yes. I made sure to double check that. I used the USB Flash creator from unraid docs under Getting Started Quote Link to comment

I used the USB Flash creator from unraid docs under Getting Started How did you double check that? I know the creator is supposed to name it that, but did it? I seem to recall other reports that it didn't get named for some. Quote Link to comment
ZeroFcksGiven Posted August 6, 2022 Author Share Posted August 6, 2022 After it created, I look at the usb stick that was plug-in and the name was set to unraid. I ejected it and put it back into my Mac and verified the usb name reads as unraid. Quote Link to comment
ZeroFcksGiven Posted August 6, 2022 Author Share Posted August 6, 2022 Jorge, I will try another usb stick. The one I used was a Sandisk cruiser. I’ll try another brand. Quote Link to comment
