Unable to install SLES on DL 380 g8
Hi All,
I tried to install Linux on an DL380 Gen8p without success.
distributions were tested
SUSE Enterprise Linux 11 sp 2 with HP Intelligent Provisioning
SUSE Enterprise Linux 11 sp 2 with kISO
SUSE Enterprise Linux 11 sp 3 with HP Intelligent Provisioning
Oracel Linux 6 u5
but in all cases it was impossible to complete the installation.
The error is always "can not find a usable hard drive "
System is ProLiant DL380p Gen8 662257R-421
Intelligent Provisioning 1.60.217
Smart Array P420i 5.42
iLO 1:51
Can anyone help me?

Did you create an array on the Smart Array controller?

Re: Unable to install SLES on DL 380 g8
Solved!!!
it is probably a bug of the SLES installer and Co.
It seems that the installer tries to load the module for the 2.6 kernel instead of the one for kenel 3
During setup phase the system tryed to install module hpsa with error "invalid module format"
modinfo hpsa show:
vermagic: 2.6.31.12-0.7-default SMP mod_unload modversions
while the module copied from a running SLES (installed on a vm using only the setup disk 1) gave this
vermagic: 0:11-3.0.76-default SMP mod_unload modversions
I did start the installation from SLES dvd and copied the correct module via USB stick,
depmod -a
modporbe hpsa
at this point is able to access the storage and to complete the installation.
