Unable to install

[Monsterrottie]

I am installing the current release. During boot I never get the GUI up it stops at a prompt. Also will it support a dual Nic? Also can it be installed to a SSD instead of a USB stick?

What GUI? It will normally just show an IP Address that you use to get to the GUI (using your web browser)

Unless you are getting nothing during the actual installation of FreeNas. If so, can you post a screenshot or what it says?

Also will it support a dual Nic?

Depends on the manner in which you are talking about. Unless you have the switches that support LACP, then no need to worry about this. Best you can do is set them up as failover lagg or just not use the 2nd nic at all.

Also can it be installed to a SSD instead of a USB stick?

For sure, that is my preferred way. But if you are limited on ports or power, then nothing really wrong with USB.

Non ECC memory is not recommended. If you value your data, might want to think this over... If your motherboard does not support ECC, then you may want to think that over as well...

The gui I am referring to is the install one. When I tried on this equivalent it never showed up. When I tried on an older laptop it went right to it

try plugging into a USB 2.0 port or change some options in BIOS. Without more information nobody can tell you what is wrong. 'It doesn't work' is not a valid symptom
