September 2, 20196 yr Very frustrating weekend. I recently upgraded my main desktop to a 3700x and planned on re-purposing my old build as an unraid server. Specs: i7-6700k ASRock Fatal1ty Z170 Gaming-ITX/ac 16 GB RAM 3000Ghz 1 TB Intel 660 NVME 2x 3TB HDD 1x 10TB HDD All of this worked perfectly fine prior to this as a Windows 10 machine and I can still boot it up via a portable USB Linux Mint drive. However, every single time I try to get Unraid going I'm greeted with some variation of this kernel panic error message. Tried both default, GUI, and safe modes. I've tried making the Unraid USB with 4 different USB drivers, tried both the tool and the manual method, used a different computer, used Linux. I've both upgraded and down graded the BIOS. I've run the built in Memtest with no errors found. I've swapped RAM sticks from my main rig. I've enabled/disabled every BIOS setting I can think of. Tried using another motherboard. When I try the same USB drive on my working 3700x build it does boot all the way into Unraid. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
September 5, 20196 yr Author Additional screenshot of the failure, this time from the UEFI boot mode, so more lines are visible. Further confirmed that my USB is fully functional as it worked perfectly fine on computers at my job. Mostly fruitless google searches show that there maybe is/was a problem with Skylake/Z170 boards? Very little info. At this point my inclination is to say screw it and abandon the project and sell my parts.
