ProLiant DL380 G5 - Unable to Install SUSE Linux Enterprise 9. Disk array is not found
At the beginning of the process, I pressed F6 to update Smart Array driver from floppy. Floppy was already created using rawrite tool, according to HP procedure. A message box appears telling that driver update was ok, but, after that, installation process is halted because there is no disk array found.
I've tried with a driver called cpq_cciss-2.6.18-5.sles9.i586.dd and with other one called mptlinux-3.02.83.20-1.sles9.i586.dd, both obtained from HP support and drivers web page.
any suggestion?
thanks.

Re: ProLiant DL380 G5 - Unable to Install SUSE Linux Enterprise 9. Disk array is not found
I see that the server is either shipped with a P400 controller or E200 controller. Please check the setup of the controller to see if the Array is configured and that the logical drive is initialized during POST.
Good luck!

The array controller is P400.

Re: ProLiant DL380 G5 - Unable to Install SUSE Linux Enterprise 9. Disk array is not found
Is it possible to try the same driver, using Linux (instead of rawrite) to create a driver disk? I doubt if it will make a difference as the driver update is successful, but it is worth a try.

Re: ProLiant DL380 G5 - Unable to Install SUSE Linux Enterprise 9. Disk array is not found
"Driver Diskette for HP ProLiant Smart Array Controller", let me check 2 facts:
- Are you using the optional HP floppy drive for that server?
- Have you formatted the floppy disk before using? (yes, I know they come preformatted, but in some servers we have had cases where the driver does not load until customer formats the floppy disk again)
