Stuck at grub message on new install

I am installing TRUNAS SCALE on a new set of server hardware and it gets stuck at a grub screen. I made the install stick with etcher (rufus did not make a bootable drive). when booting from the stick it gets to a screen with the following message and hangs

Redfish : Pushing firmware layout to OData server.Welcome to Grub!

I have tried enabling legacy boot but it cause the mother board to not boot/post. I have to then pull the CMOS battery and wait for it to reset before booting again.

As a sanity check I installed Ubuntu server 22.04 LTS. It would not install using the normal “try and install” option, but had to use the “HWE kernel” option to install.

In the past I had a trunas installation on an intel NUC but did not use it much.

Is there any advice on steps to take to try and get trunas to install? I’m stuck and not sure what to try at this point.

system specs:
ASRACK B650D4U with latest bios 10.18
AMD EPYC 4344P
32GB of unreg ECC ram 1 stick
WD black m.2 HDD
