Re: SmartStart CD for Windows Server 2008
HP Support claims that a forthcoming Smartstart will fix the glitch.
Hope this helps those ready to lose it!

Re: SmartStart CD for Windows Server 2008
How I got around this was by not installing SNMP and not installing the HP insight Management WBEM Providers for Windows (WMI-based providers). I also setup Custom PSP Installation Mode.

Re: SmartStart CD for Windows Server 2008
When you get to the SNMP screen do the following:
Leave Public and Private as your default community strings.
Also, remove the IP all together.
It now works.
This is a bug HP has not fixed.
You could change the community strings, as long as they don't match which in many cases, they do.
So just leave everything as is and just remove the IP from SNMP install screen.
When the OS loads, change you SNMP settings in Windows.
All is good...

Re: SmartStart CD for Windows Server 2008
Also, if you decide to install the 2008 x64 OS and PSP later, that doesn't work properly.
Why you ask?
Well, HP's Network Management Utility won't work because it thinks the mini-port drivers aren't going to load no matter what, trust me.
They work for the mezzanine 326m NIC's once updated, but not the 370i's.
Took a while to figure that all out...
FYI, 2008 R2 seems to be fine though...

Re: SmartStart CD for Windows Server 2008
Installing Windows Server 2008 R2 with SmartStart using a USB key fails ("The unattend answer file contains an invalid product key. Either remove the invalid product key or porvide a valid product in the unattend answer file to proceed with Windows installation"). However, installing from the SmartStart DVD worked.

Re: SmartStart CD for Windows Server 2008
Thanks to everyones comments I notice that I was using a 32 bit and not a 64 bit and that was my problem. Some times a second eye or comment can be a big help.
Thanks you all
