Booting Freenas from SSD in ODD Bay gives error 'HD5 cannot get C/H/S values'

Hello,

I have a Proliant Gen 8 Microserver, and I have installed an SSD drive in the Optical Disk Drive bay on Port 5. I have installed Freenas onto it, but have to boot using a USB stick with Grub on it to chainload the SSD to get it to boot Freenas. This was the guide I followed: https://www.ixsystems.com/community/threads/unable-to-boot-freenas-on-ssd.74327/

That's the idea anyway!

However when Grub hands over to the SSD, I get the following error message: "error : hd5 cannot get C/H/S values". I cannot for the life of me figure out how to fix this! Has anyone got any idea what that error means and how I can fix it? 

I have disabled the G120i RAID controller in the server as FreeNas will be managing all of that.

Please let me know if you need any further details.

Cheers, Bob
