      just tried it with a new hard drive (on the old MSI computer) and the update from a few minutes ago - same /dev/sda? error

        please update and try again, does the error still occur?

          trying to register older MSI computer with new hard drive connected to SATA (configured as SATA and not RAID)

          ** An error has been detected **

          Failed to initialize disk

          ** Computer will reboot in 1 minute **

            when you say “new hard drive”, do you mean a blank one? Or just a “newer” one that has some partitions on it ?

              It’s actually new and blank with no partitions or data

                After a quick FAT32 format, the system seems to work. I formatted the blank drive and was able to register the host and deploy Windows 7 to the hard drive. It also registers the host when the drive is formatted for Linux.

                        Then this is probably a Tom question.

                        I know he’s been doing A LOT of work with how HDDs are handled lately.

                          Just ran into this too. Giving it a poke.

                          EDIT:
                          The drive had Windows 10 on it before, and it worked. After running a fast wipe through FOG, I could no longer get any tasks to work (same error as above). More fiddling inbound.
