Can I install Server 2012 on my DL385 G2/G5

Hello

 

I've tried to install Server 2012 on a DL385 G5 but after the install it fails to boot giving a blue screen stating that it failed to start and reboots a bit too quick to read the error properly.

 

I'm running the install from across the LAN.  Would a DVD be better?

 

Is there any special firmware available (I'm on A09)?

 

What am I missing?

 

Help please?

 

Thanks
