Hi, Sort of gave up in the end. Had the chassis changed for ones with a removeable media bay equipped with a DVD drive. Installing from the local DVD seems to work fine. I will put in a support item with HP/SUN to see if we can get the problem resolved. For anyone in the same situation, use Sol10 _x86_u5 or better, plus latest cpqary3 drivers from HP. Cheers Joe -------------- then ----------------- Some slight progress; its something to do with virtual media handling on the new LO100 console cards. The boot process won't work using a mounted iso image via the ILO card but it will if I use an actual DVD in the drive on the machine running the remote console. I've got it as far a loading the array drivers but after that it just seems to hang up. I've had some suggestions with respect to the disk presentation via the BIOS which I'll play with next week. -------------- originally ----------------------- Hi, Anyone got a working install of Solaris10_x86 on an HP Proliant DL180 G5? Just bought a couple and the install dies just after the initial splash screen. Looks like it's crashing when it finds the P400 RAID controller. Now I've got some DL360/365s using the same controller without a problem so I'm wondering if its a quirk of the 180s. Anyone seen similar?
