DL140 G3. Startup CD?

[BSeizer]

What do you use when SmartStart CD is not offered?
Im searching through the download section to see whats available and the SmartStart is not listed.
Any ideas on how to load one from scratch?

That didn't work.
The link is for the SmartStart CD.
The DL140 G3 does not use the SmartStart CD.
That is why I am asking this question.

What am I suppoed to use instead of the SmartStart CD?

Does anyone else own one of these servers?

How do you begin to build this server when this server does not use the SmartStart CD?

You need to install directly from the OS cd.
For this you will have to download the respective RAID card controller drivers from the site, extract them to a floppy and use the F6 option at the time of OS installation, for this you will need a USB Flopyy drive.

Thank you.

I will give that a try.
