    Hello Vivek, Thanks for the reply I have tried to burn the ISO from UTM 9 and try to boot the Firewall but I get an error of "No appliance was detected" 

    is there any specific procedure to install it? I tried to change the BIOS from UEFI to Legacy but it did not work

    Thanks in advance

    Hey  are you using the "asg-9.714-4.1.iso" OR "ssi-9.714-4.1.iso?" 
    As ssi-9.714-4.1.iso is for hardware appliance only 
    Where as asg-9.714-4.1.iso is software appliance 

    Thanks & Regards,

    That means you downloaded and used the wrong ISO.

    That was the problem as stated I used the software appliance.

    thanks for the help!

    One more question if you don't mind, I have installed 4 times

    • 64 bits with enterprise tools 
    • 64 bits without enterprise tools
    • 32 bits with enterprise tools
    • 32 bits without enterprise tools 

    I used asg-9.714-4.1.iso to do the installation.

    after doing all those installs, none of the NICs are detected, but in all the installation modes it detects the 4 ethernet ports (not in the right order btw)

    I used an USB to do the install and had to fix the install.tar error by mounting the USB before beginning the installation, but besides that all the options I used are the normal setup

    Am I missing anything as part of the steps?

    thanks

    Choose the 64-bit with tools. 

    If the NIC isn't detected, it could be a problem with the NIC not working, hardware failure perhaps.

    The install.tar error is common and regular when installing from USB and doesn't affect installation after you remount.
