Problem installing OMV 7.0.32

Hi all,

I am trying to repair a failed OMV 5 machine (HP Gen 7 microserver) which appears to have a corrupted/damaged boot SSD.

I downloaded the latest ISO "openmediavault_7.0-32-amd64.iso" onto a USB stick and when I boot from it, the process stops after:-

GRUB loading.
Welcome to GRUB!

The error is

error: file '/boot/grub/i386-pc/normal.mod' not found.
Entering rescue mode...
grub rescue>

From what I can gather, this seems to imply that a non-UEFI version is trying to boot. This is sensible, as the HP Gen 7 is a legacy boot machine. However, if I check the contents of the iso file on my Windows machine, the "/boot/grub" directory does not contain an "i386-pc" directory. There are directories called "i386-efi" and "x86_64-efi" which both contain (among other files) the "normal.mod" file.

What am I doing wrong? I was able to install OMV 5 ages ago and don't recall any issues. I have disconnected all the other drives (SSD boot and 2 HHDs which are a RAID mirror), so only the USB stick is involved.

Thanks

Mick

Problem was badly construced image on USB stick

I have changed the original title to indicate the issue as SOLVED. Not sure if this is correct. I couldn't find a SOLVED button.
