Just now, IG-88 said:
i'm not sure i understand it correctly but your vid/pid in VM config (usb boot image device) and in grub.cfg in the loader image you use, need to be the same
I used the same PID and VID, but I just copied that part of the config from a forum post for this example

Two threads on each side of the same problem. To summarize, when you are running a VM:
- If you use a .img boot loader mounted to a virtual disk, you need to select the ESXi option on grub boot
- If you use a USB boot loader (either physical stick passed through to the VM, or emulated USB image), you need to adjust VID/PID in the loader, and select baremetal on grub boot
Ooh, I see where I made the problem, thank you! I will try these methods tomorrow.

i did read that but when using usb as boot media then you need to match that
I added this to the USB img file (the PID and VID are not the ones I used btw, I copied those from the grub file)

Be sure you don't forget to adjust the grub boot for ESXi unless you have an actual USB loader that you connect to your VM.
I did that, it's set to boot ESXi, but unraid is using QEMU for VMs, is that a problem?

on baremetal systems thats usually because of wring usb vid/pid in the grub.cfg of the loader
I'm not using baremetal tho, I'm running it as a VM

I managed to successfully install the newest version on VMware, but I need it on unraid for it to run 24/7. However, when trying to install it gives me an error that the file may be corrupted. I used this tutorial for the VM settings:
Newest DSM 6.2.3 says that file may be corrupted when trying to install in an Unraid VM

I have tried booting baremetal (USB) and ESXi (SATA) but none of them worked. I don't know how to set the VID and PID in Unraid for the USB device though.. I cannot find any way anywhere
