I recently tried to rebuild a proliant 800 when the system boots it will not see the smartstart cd it just says non system disk
I have erased the system with a smartstart boot disk and flashed to bios with the latest vertion. Anyone got any ideas

Make sure you are using no higher than 5.50 smart start..also try a bootable Windows cd to see if it reads it fine first.

Good luck

Neale:

You need to build a "configuration" on the box using the "System Configuration Utility". Click here for the download: http://h18000.www1.hp.com/support/files/server/us/download/13227.html

Once you have the download you will need 4 diskettes to make the images.

G'luck!
