BL460G6 Windows 2008 Server x32 Boot from SAN

Hi

I am having problems installing Windows Server 2008 on to a BL460G6 setup for boot from SAN.

I am doing the install from RDP.

Are you installing R2?
Is the BIOS the latest?
What version of RDP?

Hi

I was booting from FC to an EVA8000.

It was 2008 not sp2 and 32 bit.

I went through the process of upgrading the firmware on the card and updating the driver.

After some trial and error it worked out to be the Qlogic driver - all seems to be working. Tried it with 64 as well and it works.
