Installed but wont boot on Dell R210 II Bare Metal

hI

I have the same.

tried other hd clean, format ahci ide mode, reset bios etc

tried older version of xg installs fine but not able to boot.

for the fun I tried utm 9, works pefect, so my hardware seems to be ok.

I am using a cd or dvd btw

( I have already xg running but like to make and play with HA, so I bought a other peace of hardware ( Nuvo-1005S-520M )

any tips are welcom for us!

Will the new XG Firewall firmware run on my existing hardware or virtual environment?

Sophos XG Firewall runs perfectly on all Sophos SG Series hardware appliances, as well as the same Intel compatible hardware and the same virtual environments as UTM 9. XG Firewall is not currently compatible with Amazon Web Services, but we plan to add support for AWS and Azure cloud deployments soon.

why does it not work with xg and it will with the utm ?

could someone from sophos respond to this issue ?

thanks

Hi All,

Would you be able to try this using v16? The way that v16 installs to bare metal was adjusted slightly as there were first time boot issues with v16 on certain hardware platforms.

Here's the link to the current beta thread: https://community.sophos.com/products/xg-firewall/v16beta/f/sfos-v16-beta-feedback/79316/how-to-get-started---features-firmware-downloads-licensing

Hope v16 works better for your Dell :)

Hi Emile

I have tested this today but for me the boot issue is exacly the same.

I really like to test and get experience with HA so I bought a other peace of hardware what seems not be supported.

But my quote above say when in runs utm v9 xg will do also.

What could be the next step to troubleshoot. some bios settings or debug mode ?

it installs fine but it just cannot boot if there is nothing on the disk.

If I check the harddrive in my pc with or without a harddrive tool the drive seems empty, no partition.

thanks
