General Discussion / Re: cant load/find kernel

« on: March 20, 2020, 10:50:35 am »

UPDATE: I manage to revert the situation. I post what I did so anyone has the same problem may use it:

1: remove SSD and reset BIOS (maybe not necessary).

2: Change boot time from 1 second to more reasonable value.

3: Relocate SSD.

4: Probably the first thing you should try: Test with other fking keyboards!! In my case, changing keyboard made me able to access bios pressing DEL.

Now I'm trying to install OPNsense but installation is stuck on 10% again... Maybe my USB is not correctly flashed? I did it with Etcher on Windows.

That's what I fear..

Sometimes, pressing all F-keys at the same time I'm able to get into bios page but when I do, keyboard stops working and I cant do anything. Weird af.

I guess I'll have to check if Aliexpress warranty covers this since I just bought it...

EDIT: After removing SSD I'm able to get into BIOS but keyboard doesnt work. I tried on 4 USB port and even though keyboard switches on I cant do anything in BIOS. Any thoughts?

Thanks

General Discussion / cant load/find kernel

Hello,
I have a problem when trying to install opnsense on a Qotom q355g4. I start installing from usb stick but it stuck on 10% so i had to cancel and reboot. Now cant even begin installation, at boot menu error shows telling cant find nor load kernel. I can execute some command on that weird shell.

I cant even get into bios, i tried pressing DEL or F-keys but I ended on opnsense boot menu.

How bad is this? Any clue how to solve it?

Thank you!
