Mount Error (Solved)

I have completed the NAS install on a Dell PowerEdge T300. It is running as a KVM Virtual Machine with 4 GB ram and 1 cpu. Everything seems OK until I try to mount a disk. I follow all the steps, the disk is found, and formatted OK, but when I try to mount it all I get is "error - retry". I have no idea what the error is so I have no idea what to do to fix it?

Thanks.

for me it was always some naming convention goof.

1 - make sure you go to disk management and add the disk first.
2 - when mounting make sure you use gpt not mbr (at least that is what worked for me) and then make sure you have the proper file system selected below that.

should mount after that, i always got a mount error when i tried to mount as mbr.

OK,

Used Gpt as siraks recommended, that seems to have solved the problem. Many thanks.
