When I tried to run the VMWare ESXi installer from a USB stick (after creating the installer on a USB from the ISO), I got the following error:
SYSLINUX 3.85 2010-02-20 CBIOS Copyright (c) 1994-2010 H. Peter Anvin et al No DEFAULT or UI configuration directive found! boot:
The solution was pretty simple thanks to this post. I just needed to rename a couple files on the USB as follows:
- isolinux.bin to syslinux.bin
- isolinux.cfg to syslinux.cfg
It worked flawless. But if that does not work for you, you may try formatting the USB as FAT instead of FAT32.
I am trying to find a solution to this problem. I have a new machine I am trying to load FREENAS onto from a USB. I have tried the FAT. I cannot rename the folder/files because I don’t have them on the USB. Any ideas on what else I can try?
