Vdisk issue when trying to install PfSense

[Stubbs]

I followed this tutorial on youtube (except with the updated Unraid 6.9 IOMMU separation):

 

 

But when I boot up the VM, it won't get to the installation part. This is an excerpt of the Unraid VM log:

 

-sandbox on,obsolete=deny,elevateprivileges=deny,spawn=deny,resourcecontrol=deny \

and here is a screenshot of what the VM is displaying:

 

 

[EDIT]

I have narrowed the problem down, but still don't have a solution.

 

The problem seems to be the "Primary vDisk Bus" setting, which is set to SATA, as demonstrated in the tutorial.

If I change it to the default "VirtIO", the PfSense setup wizard shows up, but as I proceed through the installer, it cannot detect any disks.

 

Does anyone know what the issue is? Is there any additional information I should provide?

Problem solved. Yet another case of dumb user error. Close this awful thread.

If you don't mind please share what the issue was, it might help someone else in the future.

It had been a while since I last made a VM in Unraid, and when assigning a vdisk size, I forgot you're supposed to postfix it with the letter "G" to assign it in gigabytes.
