No SCSI boot device found on ML 350
background
==========
I was installing a new operating system (Server 2k3), it showed me the current partitions on my SCSI drives. I deleted the partitions, and tried to installed Windows on a partition that was 1GB. it gave error that the partition was too small. I had not formatted the other partitions. I rebooted the Server to format the other partitions and try to install the OS to them but they are nowhere to be seen now.
The text mode of the installation just sees the IDE CDROM drive.
i get message "No SCSI boot device found"
Any help is appreciated..

Re: No SCSI boot device found on ML 350
What is the generation of ML350?
1. Try and upgrade the BIOS.
2. Refer to PL support Matrix and download pertinent version of SmartStart. Try running an offline Diags..

Re: No SCSI boot device found on ML 350
Could not confirm Generation of Server, but specs are:
COMPAQ,PROLIANT ML350, TOWER, 2XPIII, 1.0GHZ, 1GB RAM
I discovered part of it could have been a card problem, but my problem still stands.
I got a seperate Adaptec SCSI card and connected the harddrives, now POST sees all the SCSI drives but after detection and listing them it returns error:
"SCSI BIOS not installed!"
Tried again running Windows Server 2k3 Setup and it still cannot see the SCSI drives.
if this means updating my BIOS, can you kindly advise how to check the Generation of my ML350 and where to download the updated BIOS.
Thank you for your time!

Re: No SCSI boot device found on ML 350
You need to load a SCSI drive, a 3rd party drive, when asked during initial OS intall.
Now you say the Adaptec SCSI card scans the bus, reports the drives but when complete it does not intall the BIOS? I would go and enter the SCSI BIOS for the card that the drives are connected to,

Re: No SCSI boot device found on ML 350
HP support asked to try swap disk (1st become the last, the last takes 1st place) which i didn't do as i found my above solution.
not sure, you may need to manually mark the disks' SCSI id like i did (HP support said no need so)

Re: No SCSI boot device found on ML 350
Tried now to install Win Server 2k3 but it still cant see my SCSI drives, only the IDE CD-ROM.
It gives the following option:
"To specify additional SCSI adapter including those for which you have a device support disk from a mass storage device manufacturer press S"
When I press S it lists a number of SCSI devices and including the Adaptect AIC-7899G device. But selecting it prompts for a CD:
"Insert Compact Diswc labelled Windows NT Server Setup Disk # 3 into CD-ROM Drive"
I insert it but it doesnt find the drives on it.
Question now is, how can I install the drivers of this Adaptec Card. I checked the adaptec site but there's not much on this AIC-7899G card.
Some instructions i come across are Windows base (installation after loading Windows) i cant load Windows because my Hard Drives have been formated.
Thanks for help
