topic Boot from 4si in Disk Enclosures https://community.hpe.com/t5/disk-enclosures/boot-from-4si/m-p/2839337#M6463 I have two L-class servers (one L1000, one L2000), both with RAID 4SI card and 4xDS2100 arrays.<BR /><BR />I'd like to do a cold install, loading the OS onto the external disks and using them for boot.<BR /><BR />But Ignite-UX doesn't "see" the 4SI card. The manual says to boot from CD, goto "Advanced Options", and then "Configure A5856A RAID 4Si card".<BR /><BR />Alas, that option doesn't appear in my Advanced menu and I can't select the configured RAID drive on later screens. Note that these two configured RAID volumes *do* appear when I SEArch for bootable devices from the boot menu.<BR /><BR />PDC=41.39.<BR />4SI=01.06<BR /><BR />Any ideas?
