Hi,
Maybe someone already had this problem with installing OI on a similar system.
I'm having the issue while installing XStreamOS, but I think there is no difference, it's about illumos, I think.
I was trying to reinstall from scratch an asrock based nas-like system.
I originally installed the system using an internal dvd, which is no more there.
Now I tried both using an external usb-dvd, and an usb key with the XStreamOS install.
Both stop during startup of text-install, going to administration mode for some reason: actually I believe the system is no more capable of readinig the filesystem for some problem with the usb driver when it's loaded.
The original installed system can still boot and see usb keyboard.
I have some options on bios for usb:
- legacy enabled : keyboard works both on bios and system after boot
- legacy disabled: prefer not to use this mode, or I will have no keyboard during UEFI, no way to enter bios or boot sequence, so no way to get back but resetting the cmos...
- legacy auto: same as first
- uefi only: keyboard will work only during bios boot, no more later
I can't see a way to install....any idea?
Gabriele
