Error during boot proces Firmware DVD 9.10

[Kick Vieleers]

Hi,

I am trying to load the Firmware DVD 9.10 on a Proliant DL380G4 server.
I do get the first screens (with the question for interactive mode or automatic mode)
However, after a few minutes i get the following information:
CD information
mount directory /mnt/boot
Physical device: /dev/sr0
volume_label: HPFWUP910
SS_CD_MOUNTPOINT: /mnt/boot
Boot env: yes
Architecture: x86_x64
fwupdatesystem0013216b039b: #bootar: cannot connect to X server:0

I am using an iso file and ILO2 (virtual media)
What is going wrong?

greetings,

Kick

Broken ISO or any (firmware related) problem with virtual media? What is the current iLO firmware?

[Kick Vieleers]

The current firmware of ILO is 1.94
Also the ILO self test is "passed"

I have downloaded the firmware DVD 2 times now and still no succes.
I can boot the 8.60 FW and 9.00 FW DVD with virtual media.

From instructions:

To ensure the integrity of your download, HP recommends verifying your results with this MD5 Checksum value:
eb72cb8861356ab57ba6a09fb85dbaec firmware-9.10-0.zip

How can i check this?
I have never used the checksum files before.

[Kick Vieleers]

Well, i found a tool to check a file.
The zip file and checksum number are the same. In other words, the check was succesfull.

I'm having the same problem.
I'using a USB memory created with the HP USB Key Utility.

The server that I'm having the problem on is a DL385 G1.

It's working on a DL360 G6.

guys u cant use the firmware dvd 9.0 / 9.10 with earlier servers then G5

use the firmware cd 8.70

[Kick Vieleers]

I did some extra testing.
Same Firmware DVD iso on a Proliant DL 380 G5 server.
The firmware was able te load correctly.
It seems that the firmware 9.10 DVD is not working correctly with some Proliant servers.

@Manuel

No the Proliant DL380 G4 is on the hardware list of FW910
