April 24, 20233 yr Hi everyone, I am having trouble installing unraid. I created several boot sticks with the same result: It does not recognize any of my hdd nor nvmes. System Hardware: Intel Core 5-12500 64 GB ECC ram (2x 32) supermicro x13sae (bulk) 8 TB WD 3 TB WD 2x Samsung nvme (1TB) I disabled/enabled VT-d, fastboot without luck. Tried different usb-sticks. The last message is always "waiting for UNRAID arrays showing up for 30 seconds". After that, it will ask me to reboot. In order to check whether this is hardware related or not, I removed the RAM sticks one by one, all nvme, one hdd. No luck. I also used the same usb sticks to install archer and ubuntu. Both succesfull, both see all hdd/nvmes, both systems are fully operable with the live cd or even with hdd installation. Additional finding: When I run memcheck from the unraid usb stick, the systems fails with a "caterror" blinking led. When I running memcheck from the ubuntu image, it opens and runs successful. I am a little bit lost to be honest and any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

April 24, 20233 yr Author oh my god... should have tried this before losing my mind. Thank you very much for the hint. Not sure what the difference between the both installations are, but I was able to install unraid in no-time. Thanks again.
