Detail

I have a brand new physical server and I'm attempting to boot to the Security Onion 2.4 ISO. Running into the following issue as the dots continue.

Guidelines

• I have read the discussion guidelines at Read before posting! #1720 and assert that I have followed the guidelines.

Did you verify the ISO download ?
Is the ISO virtually mounted to the server using something like idrac or did you flash a USB with the ISO?

[imranmanraj]

@reyesj2 yes I did verify the ISO, it is virtually mounted using iDrac

[reyesj2]

Is the server on the same network as you or are you connected over a VPN?

If you boot your server and get to the same screen as the image you shared earlier.
Press SHIFT + TAB and then when in the shell look in /var/log/anaconda/ and share the contents of the files named ks-script*
If the path /var/log/anaconda is wrong you should be able to find the files if they exist by running
find / -name ks-script*
