Solutionuse the firmware cd first
update all firmwares
then use the software cd boot from it follow the wizard to install that is the prefered way
this server has a 6402 controller which is supported by the smart start cd on the link i posted here

Still hats off for all the information, You have saved me hours of fighting with this.

Re: Compaq ml370 g3 scsi onboard
Definately do not havethe array controller ,no cards installed in server.
Tried the install after burning to disk first the firmware ,only 2 updates nessacary.
Then the smartstart , still no dice on formatting other drives only lists 1 36 gig as option.
Guess going to need that array after all to just format dives and access?

Re: Compaq ml370 g3 scsi onboard
It seems you are as determined as I am to get this running .
On the post screen it lists HP Ultra 3 as the controller.
It then proceeds to search for and find each drive 1 at a time.
As it does so sequentially each hard drive light shows power then goes off again as the bios moves to next drive .
Moving the already formatted drive up to position 5 on the hard drive cage does keep its light, power , lit but in smart start you are only able to install o.s. to scsi lun 0. which is the bottom of the hot swap bay.
I think i got all your questions answered.
By the way 1 more thing....
I also tried the f9 , it only lists option to reset scsi id and reset scsi. Also of interest, after going completely through post an option to format appears , At least thats what i call it >> f10 , says it does not exist on this system.
