Hi,
I am totally new to FreeNAS. I did my best installing FreeNAS 9.1.1 x64 on an home PC and I managed to get it up an running. I can access the web GUI and create user accounts etc...
However, as soon as I try to create volumes, I get error messages.
INFO: the system is installed on a 4GB USB dongle while there are 4 200GB disks in the machine. 2x 200GB ATA133 on a PCI controller and 2x 200GB sATA2 on onboard sATA2 ports
The error messages I get basically tell me that the disk cannot be modified/wiped due to rights limitation ("operation not permitted" for dd) or that the partition table cannot be modified ("unable to GPT format the disk").
AS I said, I am brand new to FreeNAS... Maybe I forgot something obvious, maybe I did something wrong, Maybe some of my hardware is incompatible... I don't know...
Please let me know what information could be useful to troubleshoot this further...
Thank you very much in advance for your help.
Best,
