Hello! I'm at wits end here. I am trying what I thought was going to be a simple install of Centos 6.7 on a brand new Dell R730xd. However, I can't for the life of me figure out how to get it to actually boot from the USB drive media(s) I have created successfully.
I created multiple (now 3) different USB Drives with a few flavors of Centos 6.7 (minimal and 2 DVD.1.iso's) by downloading them from the mirror and using the dd command on my Mac. They all LOOK like they worked fine -- and the Mac certainly see's them when I plug them back into it.
I pop them into the front right USB slot -- and boot the R730xd. I hit the F11 Boot Menu -- and there is an option for "One-time UEFI Boot Option". I select that and I see an option to
Boot from Front USB Disk2: USB DRIVE
Perfect -- I select that. It continues booting but I get the message
Boot Fail: Boot from Front USB Disk2: USB DRIVE
Boot Fail:
Please make sure a compatible media device is inserted.
This is with all 3 USB drives with 2 different Centos 6.7 images!
Please help -- this is driving me nuts -- let alone my customer is wondering about my ability here. Rightly so maybe.
