Help on installing Fedora 5 on ML350 G5

RamaKrishna Reddy C — Fri, 26 Oct 2007 07:54:12 GMT

Hi,

I am having a HP ML350 G5 Server with 2x72GB Disks with Raid 1. I tried to install Fedora Core 5 on this system.I selected automatically install the os when asked for partitioning. The install completed successfully. After rebooting the system, it is hanging. It is not showing the login screen. It is hanging when displaying the message "Enabling the SWAP space".

The system is with E200i controller.

Can anyone help me please...

Hello Rama,

Refer:

Also,
Make sure the server is running on the LATEST firmware. You may download firmware maintenance CD 7.9 & boot the server using it; it will update all the firmware needed.
