Hey everyone, new here. I was previously running/still am running a Synology box. I am in the process of demoing FreeNAS on some existing hardware I have before updating and switching everything over. When installing however I am running into issues mounting the USB drive that the installer is on. The error I am gett is "mounting from xxxxxx failed with error 2; retrying for xxx seconds". I have tried a couple of trouble shooting steps such as making sure I am using USB2 ports on the motherboard, and got a USB2 flashdrive out to try as well. My hardware is:
CPU: Pentium G4600
Motherboard: MSI Z270 TOMAHAWK
Memory: 2x8GB GSkill AEGIS
HDD: HGST Ultrastar 7K4000 7200 RPM 4TB
All the parts are things I had laying around that I wasn't using anymore so I could try out FreeNAS before switching. Any help is appreciated, thanks
