rjack Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 (edited) Hello all. I posted an issue yesterday that was promptly taken care of, and I wanted to first say thank you to the community for that. Now I am running into new issues. My new build: i5 10400 MSI Z490 Gaming plus Unraid 6.9.0 beta 22 new install First main issue is I am not able to boot into the Unraid GUI from the prompt. It runs through the cycle but when it gets to what should be the login it just displays a blank screen and a blinking cursor. It worked previously but even with default Bios settings it will not work. I am able to boot into the command line Unraid, which would not be a problem except for my second issue I am unable to connect to my network. I have tried reloading the flash drive and adjusted settings in the Bios, UEFI Network Stack enabled/disabled, but it will not connect. I have both lights displayed from the NIC on the motherboard, but this may just be a wait for the new version of Unraid as I know the new boards are hit or miss from what I have read here (Hope not). I have attached my Diag file below. Thank you again for all the support. tower-diagnostics-20200704-0344.zip Edited July 4, 2020 by rjack Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 Your NIC isn't yet supported, it should be on the next beta which is expected very soon. Quote Link to comment
rjack Posted July 4, 2020 Author Share Posted July 4, 2020 I figured as much on the NIC. Thank you for the reply, now to figure out why the GUI will not load on boot. Quote Link to comment

Hoopster Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 3 minutes ago, rjack said: now to figure out why the GUI will not load on boot. You might try adding 'nomodeset' to the unRAID OS GUI Mode boot option in syslinux.cfg on your unRAID flash drive. Here is what it looks like added to all boot options on the menu (you only need to try it on the GUI mode): label unRAID OS menu default kernel /bzimage append initrd=/bzroot nomodeset label unRAID OS GUI Mode kernel /bzimage append initrd=/bzroot,/bzroot-gui nomodeset label unRAID OS Safe Mode (no plugins, no GUI) kernel /bzimage append initrd=/bzroot unraidsafemode nomodeset label unRAID OS GUI Safe Mode (no plugins) kernel /bzimage append initrd=/bzroot,/bzroot-gui unraidsafemode nomodeset label Memtest86+ kernel /memtest Quote Link to comment
rjack Posted July 4, 2020 Author Share Posted July 4, 2020 Hoopster, thank you for the suggestion, it did not work. Also johnnie.black, I am having issues booting from anything but UEFI so that is not working for me either. Thanks for the suggestion though. Quote Link to comment
rjack Posted July 4, 2020 Author Share Posted July 4, 2020 I found an old intel NIC card and I can get it on the network and access the server GUI from there. Is it an issue that the login prompt is not asking me for a password on the command line login? Could it be related to the GUI not loading from boot? Thanks for all the help. Quote Link to comment
rjack Posted July 4, 2020 Author Share Posted July 4, 2020 Please close this one out. I think it had to do with the password file being transferred along with the key. Thank you for all the help. 1 Quote Link to comment
