18.1 Legacy Series / AHCI Timeout on 18.1 but 17.7 installs fine
« on: February 02, 2018, 03:54:09 pm »
I'm new to OPNSense but hope I haven't overlooked something simple. I have searched in the forums and found one related thread in German, but with no solution to the issue:
https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=7070.msg31436#msg31436
I built my own system to run OPNSense:
Asrock J3355M motherboard
4GB RAM
HP SSD
When attempting to install 18.1 from a USB Drive, it usually stops at the message shown in the attached screenshot (AHCI Timeouts). I tried changing a number of BIOS settings, updating the BIOS, rewriting the install image to a new USB drive, etc.
I was on a couple of occasions able to get it to go past this point (not 100% sure what BIOS settings allowed that), but the installer did not list the SSD as a target for install.
17.7 installer works just fine.
Should I back up my config and attempt the 18.1 update from within 17.7?
Sorry if I've missed something simple, I've read what I can and searched the forums before posting.
Any info is appreciated! Thanks!
