@Patrick this is for you, I believe you are in a unique position to help, I saw on your videos that you have the same love hate relationship with these devices. Some of you might know me from writing on of the most read posts regarding the migration from vmWare to Proxmox on Reddit with almost...

Installing Proxmox VE today on an m.2 ssd attached to a PCIE adapter (older mobo), getting the USB to boot required tweaking CSM settings in the BIOS. Install went smoothly, but on reboot I cannot get a boot from the ssd, even after further tweaking of CSM settings. Thinking maybe it's the...

Hi all, I've got myself in a mess, I was able to pick up a HP G9 mini computer with a 14500T processor. It was mis sold so I'm looking to flip it for a little profit and get an AMD system instead. However, during my testing I put a Fedora 42 install on it, deleting the main windows partition...

Hello everyone, not sure if this is the correct spot to post this, as I honestly am unsure what angle to properly approach this problem from: I have a AMD EPYC 9654QS CPU ( Model No. 100-000000894-04 ) identical to the CPU which is being used in this thread, where a fellow user was/is...

I'm building a new TrueNAS box with the following: *AMD Epyc 7313P 16C/32T SP3 *Supermicro H12SSLiO motherboard *256gb 2133 DDR4 RDIMM - Hynix The issue I'm having is an odd one. The box hates to warm reset. If I try to "save and reset" from BIOS or restart from a live linux drive it hangs on...

Hello everyone!, I recently picked up a Dell R720 and have fired it up for the first time.. The screen was black, reading the words "Initializing firmware interfaces" "Initialization complete" "Lifecycle controller: Collecting System Inventory..." I also saw, for a quick moment, it saying...

Introduction: I've got a SuperMicro SuperServer 5018A-FTN4, which I bought specifically to use as a gateway for my network. I intended to use pfsense on it, and have been attempting to install pfsense2.4.5-RELEASE-p1 on a pair of SATA SSDs. Hardware in question: The system in question runs an...

Hi, I’ve bought an used X99 WS / IPMI MB. It seems to work mostly fine. After an initial struggle on restoring the IPMI/iKVM password I’ve managed to login on it. Then I’ve discovered something I’ve never seen on my old DELL servers with iDRAC: FRU Information. After some research I’ve got that...

I've searched for awhile now and can't find what I need. Hopefully the community can help. Hardware: Dell R710 2 x 3TB WD Red 4 x 4TB WD Red Perc H200i flashed to IT mode (P19). MPT firmware 20.00.07.00-IT ; NVDATA version 14.01.00.08 In UEFI boot mode, I'm trying to install Win server 2016...

Please forgive me for the possibly dumb question. I have an X9SRE-F mobo with the latest BIOS and want to experiment with UEFI. Per the Supermicro website, this board supports UEFI. However, I don't see any setting to change it from legacy BIOS mode to UEFI mode. I do see that I can boot...
