I get an error when trying to install FreeNas on my hard drive. What's the problem?
"Create filesystem: ad0s1ad0: WARNING - WRITE_DMA UDMA ICRC error (retrying request) LBA=32351
ad0: WARNING - WRITE_DMA status=51 error=84 LBA=32351
Error: Failed to create filesystem on '/dev/ad0s1' !
Unmount CDROM
There was a problem during initializing the destination disk."
I am using Option 2: Install 'embedded' OS on HDD/Flash/USB + data partition, but error messages come up with the other install options too.
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

M$That will give you an idea of what's going on in a more interactive environment, and because FreeNAS is based on FreeBSD, you'll know for sure whether your drive works in that OS well.

M$I tried downloading this here: http://livecd.sourceforge.net/download.php
at the first link, but it wasn't an ISO file.
www.ultimatebootcd.com can be downloaded and burned to a CD
It contains the vendor diagnostic tools and other tests for almost all hard drives.

M$Basically the drive is reporting it's failed due to bad blocks. Replace it if under warranty.

M$Upon looking at the code that triggers this particular error,
"// Creating temporary directory to mount CDROM.
if (1 == mwexec("/bin/mkdir -p {$mntpath}")) {
write_console("Error: Failed to create directory '{$mntpath}'!\n");
return 1;
}"
It appears that it is failing to be able to create a directory on the HDD in order to facilitate the mounting of the CD drive, so it's a hard drive write issue you are experiencing for sure. You may try doing a quick format on the drive (if there is no data on it or that you are worried about) and try to do the install again.
