Hi,

I try to install NAS4Free from an embedded .img who I have burned to a CD-ROM, but it not work. If my 4 Gb USB stick is connected the setup saids ''Please remove any media and press any key to reboot'' if I do this, the machine enter the setup.

Need help please!

Thanks,

Guillaume

Sounds like you might have the wrong file for booting from CD. http://www.forums.nas4free.org/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=21

Try downloading .ISO file and burn to CD.

The .iso file is for burning a bootable CD
dragging and dropping files to a CD does not make it bootable
using a burning program to burn an .iso file does
win 7 does this natively, XP needed nero or the like

once the CD is booted to the target computer
option 9 allows for transfer of the OS to writable boot medium
[which is needed for the configuration file]

be sure to select the correct .iso file for the hardware [32 or 64 bit]

Hi,

Thanks for the replies.

Using the LiveCD I can see the options from 0 to 9 but the keyboard do not respond so I can't press 9. Any ideas why this happen?

not all keyboards play well, some need exotic drivers
try a plain old ps2 [round plug] keyboard or different key board

Can you give us some idea what hardware you are using?

Hi,

My server hardware is:

Supermicro MBD-X10SAT-O
Intel Xeon E3 Quad Core 3100 Mhz
Kingston DDR3 1600 Mhz 32 Gb (4x 8 Gb)
Athena Power AP-RRP4ATX6808 700W Redundant
24x 6 Tb Seagate for data
4 Gb USB drive for the OS

Also, my motherboard don't have any PS2 port.

Thanks!

try a different KB
as plain and simple as you can find

adjust USB bios settings if needed
