scsi drive not seen by dos/Windows setup
I purchased a new ML150 G2 Server. Upon trying to load Windows 2003 Server Standard, the text mode setup could not locate a hard drive. I put the Ultra320 drivers on a floppy and tried again by pressing F6 and using the hp drivers but this did not work.
I created a DOS boot floppy and tried fdisk. It told me there were no fixed disks present. I added a jumper to the pin for Narrow/Wide (36Gb SCSI p/n 306641-005) and fdisk was able to see a drive. Upon trying to create a primary partition, fdisk hangs on "verifying drive (0%)". Windows setup still did not see the drive.
I have tried other jumpers (term power, channel id, start cmd) but no combination works. Termination is on at the adapter and the end of the cable has a terminator as well. The drive is in the middle (I've tried various connectors on the cable) and is the only drive installed.
Is this thing broken or am I missing something?

Re: scsi drive not seen by dos/Windows setup
Doug,
I assume you are not getting any POST errors about the SCSI controller or anything else, right?
Have you tried the SCSI configuration utility? During POST Watch for the message;
Press for SCSISelect(TM) Utility!
This will allow you to format the disk the correct way.
You should put everyrhing back the way it was (jumpers and so forth) and try again.
Don't forget your drive is not hot pluggable
36.4GB, Ultra320, 15K Non Hot-Pluggable drive, spare part # 357913-001.
Good Luck,
Mark

Re: scsi drive not seen by dos/Windows setup
I forgot to mention - I had already gone into the scsi utility and performed a format. It didn't help.
HP phone support had me try another adapter driver downloaded from their site. This didn't work either and they are shipping a new drive.
Thanks for the quick reply, btw.
