Re: Anyone else run into glitches with SmartStart 8.30 and Server 2008 R2?
When the install completed, I could not log in with my credentials.
With the clues from this thread, I tried dropping characters from the end of my password, and did get in. (Whew!)
I think though, that the relevant thing may not be the number of characters, but the type of characters.
I dropped non alpha-numerics and got in.
In other words, my password ended in some of these !@#$ etc. Once they were all gone, voila!
I suggest trying your password and skipping all non AlphaNumeric characters.
Might be something for the developers to have a look at please HP.
Best Regards,
Jeff Davies

Trying to install server 2008r2 on a Proliant DL360g4 for testing purposes.
I never did have luck with Smartstart 8.2 and would end up installing from the server disc.

Re: Anyone else run into glitches with SmartStart 8.30 and Server 2008 R2?
I am very displeased about this issue. Just bought a server (DL380 G6) that came with the 8.30 smart start disk. Encountered the same issue with the password.
HP, where's SmartStart 8.4?

Re: Anyone else run into glitches with SmartStart 8.30 and Server 2008 R2?
I was beside myself however when the password didn't work. Now I'll have to re-install, and since I'm doing it remotely, I'll have to wait until someone wanders by and slides the "SmartStart" CD drawer back in.
I remember a time when having an HP meant something. Today, it means you should have bought something cheaper somewhere else. The support has never been so bad as it has over the last three years.

Re: Anyone else run into glitches with SmartStart 8.30 and Server 2008 R2?
The password inserted in SmartStart was not recognized by Windows.
I had to reinstall from scratch, but this time I left the password EMPTY in SmartStart and the installation ran well, doing automatic unassisted logons and reboot until I was presented with SBS Wizard.
So my suggestion is to LEAVE THAT DARN PASSWORD EMPTY WHILE IN SMARTSTART.
HP should add a note on this.
