20.7 Legacy Series / can't install on SSD
« on: December 28, 2020, 08:50:49 pm »
Hi there,
I want to upgrade from monowall.
I was already successful to install the (VGA) image to an USB Stick and install from the booted live system to the same stick. The hardware seems fine, fast enough (Dual Core Atom D2500, 1.86GHz, 2GB RAM)
Unfortunately I can't install to an SSD. No matter if the live system is booted from the same SSD, or from an USB Stick. I log in with the install user, the drive is shown in the install wizard but once selected, it exits.
I'm not very familiar with BSD or gpart, so I'm not sure what is the actual error, so I uploaded the first window and the "view log" screen. Could anybody please advice?
Since the log suggest that there is a file existing, I formatted and later even low-level formatted the SSD, without any difference.
I checked the BIOS for anything referring to the sector numbering, but there's nothing.
I also tried IDA and AHCI in the BIOS without any effect. That'S pretty much all the BIOS allows to change here.
