April 16, 20233 yr I had my server working for days and would boot fine. I have had an issue with my backplane, and one of the ports is bad. I replaced it, and started it back up and now i get this error and Unraid wont boot. Failed to allocate initramfs memory bailing out Booting kernel failed: bad file number I have no idea what this means, but i have tried another USB boot drive, and i have tried upgrading my bios. I have tried disabling UEFI, but i believe because i am using iGPU it will not allow this. The problem is, that it absolutely worked for weeks without this issue. I don't understand how UEFI could be the issue when it worked for weeks.
