It was not keen on stopping and I had to use the force tickbox and click it a couple of times if I remember rightly. Run the Ubuntu install till you reach the black screen with 'Installation complete' and the 'Reboot Now' option at the bottom.ĭelete the iso installation image from the CDROMĭelete the virtual CDROM and then also stop the Virtual Machine. I had the same loop which is why I ended up here but I have managed to do this. I took a brief skim over others, and gave the most information I could sensibly give) (Sorry if I've made this help request wrong. I have also used a brand new, clean install version of FreeNAS downloaded earlier in the week, and have wiped every single drive of all data, and made new pools for the 2 usable drives.Īny help is appreciated, and more details are available upon request! Has anyone ran into this issue? About 3 weeks ago, this worked fine, and I have had 2 VMs running for about 1.5~2 months without issue, and was forced to reinstall them due to a power loss. This issue does not seem apparent with Fedora Server, though I haven't tried any other operating systems thus far due to an incredibly slow home internet connection that would take overnight to download any files over 700~ MB or so. I have also tried this without deleting the CDROM device, but have had no success thus far. After booting back up, I am showed the Grub screen, with only options to install Ubuntu server, install for OEM use, and do disk check.

Installation seems to go fine, and all steps are indicated as completed by the installer, giving me the prompt to remove the installation media and reboot.įrom there, I delete the CDROM device of the VM, and press enter on the VNC in order to reboot the VM. The issue I run into is encountered whenever I attempt to install the most recent (as of 2 days ago) Ubuntu 19.04 live server iso for 64 bit machines. The Xbox drive is being used as general storage, and has presented no issues. I am attempting to install the VM to the 320gb drive, and FreeNAS runs on the 80gb drive.

Some 250gb Xbox 360 slim hard drive, WD I believe.I can't recall exact model numbers, but here's similar drives (if not them exactly) And 3 decommissioned laptop drives I've taken out of various systems over the years.
