Shalom,

Current procedure is to use the hardware based firmware to set up the raid disk before starting the OS install.

Also, the G6 is only certified on RHEL 4.7 or above. So you need to use the right OS release. Older versions of RHEL lack the drivers needed to access disk on the G6 server family.

Hi Shalom,

The raid disk is configured as RAID 1+0 properly.
The matter is that after the language selection I can't go on cause it seems that RedHat doesn't recognize the any driver.
