What happened?

I get the same issue as https://github.com/ventoy/Ventoy/issues/1684 :

Mounting from cd9660:iso9660/TRUENAS failed with error 2; retrying for 180 more seconds

With very similar logs waiting for usb devices. The main difference I have besides the iso version is that I am booting of a NVME to USB enclosure with a larger drive. I have no issue booting other ISOs like Garuda Linux from the same drive.

Looking at the patch that was done for that previous issue, it looks like you are trying to extract the version number from the file name, which used to be "TrueNAS-13.0-RELEASE.iso" but is now "TrueNAS-13.0-U5.3.iso" so I tried to use the original filename, which also didn't change anything.

Same issue, Philips USB stick, 32 GB, BIOS, tried 1.0.96 and 12041513, worked fine after writing image directly

I finally managed to get it working by turning on CSM in BIOS and forcing boot to Legacy devices. I suspect there's something in the SuperMicro x9 BIOS that does not correctly implement the UEFI spec which breaks ventoy UEFI mode.

Checks out, SuperMicro X10 here.

Checks out, SuperMicro X10 here.

Can confirm exactly this, X10-SRA here, also borked with UEFI.
