DL320 G4 OS installation
I'm fighting with the same problem like already discussed here: installation of W2K3 on DL320 G4 with SATA controller.
@1: I gave up configuring RAID1 and disabled the SATA controller in RBSU, but SmartStart installation still doesn't work (no supported controller)
@2: in RBSU I cannot change the Boot Controller Order (SATA is always the first, I cannot choose)
@3: I bought the server without Floppy Drive. IF I need to make a manual installation: do I need the floppy drive for the SATA driver? Windows requests the different controller driver in A:.
@4: If I do configure Raid1 I cannot create drives in the SATA Array Configuration Utility.
I always counted on HP ProLiant servers but this desaster now with simply installing Windows server on the machine... Unbelievable!!!
Regards
Michaela

Re: DL320 G4 OS installation
1. Smart Start CD does not detect the SATA onboard controller.
2. Has the server has only SATA controller, by default that is the one listed first in Boot controller Order.
3. You may need to use a USB FDD to supply the SATA controller driver for windows.

4. Select Raid 1 in the SATA Array confifuration utility, during the Windows installation you could specify or Create a Partition size that you require. Later using Disk Management or HP SATA RAID Controller Manager for Windows 2000/Windows Server 2003 to creating more partition or managing the array.
HP SATA RAID Controller Manager for Windows 2000/Windows Server 2003:

Re: DL320 G4 OS installation
thanks for the fast response.
The server has next to the SATA controller also the "normal" PCI IDE controller. But this is probably not to chose...
Now I'll try the normal windows installation.

Re: DL320 G4 OS installation
1- DL320 G4 with embedded sata raid is not supported in the smartstart cd. You will need to perform manual install. Floppy option required to load drivers. With Manual install you can use raid if you want.
2- don't need to change the boot controller unless you are using a different pci controller as boot controller. for now just keep it the same.
3- You will need the floppy for the F6 and driver for the SATA controller. (can use USB floppy drive or usb key.
4- Once you configure Raid ; just do manual install; Smartstart dosenot work this server in detected the embedded controller.
-
- if you don├в t have the floppy you can use a usb key with the F6 option in windows.

Re: DL320 G4 OS installation
now I'm the happy owner of an internal HP floppy disk drive and tried the manual installation.
BUT: after feeding W2K3 installation with the embedded S-ATA drivers the following error occurs:
File txtsetup.oem caused an unexpected error (1024) at line 1814 in d:\srv03trm\base\boot\setup\oemdisk.c
Whats this again?

Re: DL320 G4 OS installation
To resolve the issue, please format the floppy again and than extract or copy the files onto the floppy and than try loading the drivers. That should resolve the issue.

Raj.

Re: DL320 G4 OS installation
Did you try this:
Insert the diskette into a machine with an existing Windows operating system installed.
- Go to the command prompt.START-RUN-CMD-OK- At the prompt, type DIR A:
- If the Volume Serial number is 0000-0000. the diskette is still in it's formatted state from the diskette manufacturer. It may be the cause of this error. Re-format the diskette and copy over the driver files again.

Re: DL320 G4 OS installation
The floppy disk number ist definitely different from the factory default. Moreover I tried it with a second one.
But - the errors remains the same.

Re: DL320 G4 OS installation
1.HP recommended floppy drives work with some struggle.
2.The only easy way to get this working is slipstream Service Pack and Raid drivers.
Additional information:

Though its for Xp,same steps for Win2k/2k3 will work.

Most of the forum guys have had success with this method.
