Re: can't install 36 GB hard disk in HP 9000 E 45
I don't think you can use that large of a disk in that old of a system. The entire nova series is no longer supported by HP.
I'd suggest you try using a 9G disk. That was the largest one I could find for a E class refered to in a disk upgrage manual form 1997.
You may have some luck using the 36G disk as a non-boot disk once you've got a working OS disk.
Regards,
Tom

Re: can't install 36 GB hard disk in HP 9000 E 45
a design flaw of the PDC (firmware),
which required LIF files (the "boot image")
to be in the first 4 GB of a disk drive.
IIRC, something was changed...either
firmware or HP-UX, such that the problem
was resolved.
What release of HP-UX are you running?

I totally agree with TOM.
Better try with 9GB Disk for the O.S then you can play aroung with the 36GB for Non-root Disk.
9GB should be sufficient as an upgrade to 2GB.

I think you will find a scsi type compatability problem between the 36GB disk and the very old E45 scsi controller.
Robert most HP disks are badged disks and I have used many different types including seagate so that will not be a problem for you.
