Soft reset failed (device not ready)

  • Motherboard: ASUS AM3A78-EM
    RAM: 8gb
    CPU: AMD 5050e
    Boot Drive: Transcend 64GB SSD
    Other drives: four 1tb Seagate analog drives (all formatted to ext4)
    No IDE drives are connected
    SATA configuration is AHCI


    I've successfully installed and booted to Ubuntu 18.04, Lubuntu 18.04, and Mint Cinnamon 19 with the configuration shown above.


    OMV (4.13) appears to install fine, but when I boot after installation, I get "Soft reset failed (device not ready)" on ALL of the drives. How is it possible that it can install, but not boot?

    Could be anything regarding ATA, however, first place to start boot OMV with no other drives connected except for boot device, obviously ensuring that it is set to the first boot device in the BIOS.
