KooKoo102 Posted May 21, 2020 Posted May 21, 2020 Hello, First post on hereĀ š I am having issues getting into the install of FreeNas. I get past the first boost screen, but right as it starts to load the installer, locks up ( and throws one of the cores assigned to the VM at 100% ) Ā I have tried what I think is every possible Bios / MachineĀ version in the settings. No mix of config gets me any further. I have tried many versions of FreeNas, even the recently released and TrueNas 12.0... no difference. I already have many other Vms that work with no issues (five W10, Win Server 2019, openfiler, Synology OS) So IĀ have no issues with my Unraid setup in that regard. Ā I can put my XML here if needed... but honestly, I just use the FreeBSD preset, only thing I customize is the CPU Pinning and the combo for Bios and Machine. My system is an AMD TR 2970WX (24 core) - 64GB ram - Asrock X399 Pro Gaming Motherboard. Ā If there is anyone that has this running, did you have any issues getting it going? Thank you! Quote
tjb_altf4 Posted May 23, 2020 Posted May 23, 2020 I gave an install a go and saw the same issues as you hadĀ using freenas 11.3 and bsd template. Ā Similar hang isĀ also described here:Ā https://redmine.ixsystems.com/issues/77718 So it is some combination of vm's uefi settings or versionĀ causing issues by the look of it Ā Quote

I will research and tinker some tomorrow. I work nights and need to get to bed, had to give it a try though. super excited there is a light at the end of the tunnel.Ā Quote
tjb_altf4 Posted May 26, 2020 Posted May 26, 2020 Try changing the install media from usb to sata, or vice versa Quote
