I have a Supermicro server that I am trying to install RouterOS to. I can install to USB and successfully boot, but it cannot see the NICs, I can also get to the PXE based installer but get stuck with the message “no network card found”.
What options do I have to get this working?
Using a different host is not an option (though adding hardware to this one is possible)
The hardware:

Hi
I’ve tried and failed on similar hardware, I did once manage to get it up and running but it then started crashing every 5 minutes and rebooting…
The easiest way to do this is to boot a Hypervisor on your physical hardware and use one of the pre-build CHR images available for download, they appear to work everytime

On such new hardware I suggest to to install hypervisor like promox, virtualbox, etc, and install RouterOS CHR for best performance, and when RouterOS v7 comes out with new kernel you can try that.
Thanks guys, I’ll give it a go.
