Installation Error!! BL860c HPUX 11.31 (09/07)

Hi Getting an error while cold-installing 11.31 (September 2007 edition) on blade server:


After the window i select "Media Only" and after the language and keyboard options. Then gives error message while looking for ignite files.

"loadfile command failed, retry? [y/n]"

It reboots shortly after.

Pls help.

This may be a question of (un-)supported DVD drive used...
Anyway, consider to try the install using ignite or vMedia or even with another dvd drive.

Hope this helps!

i hadnt selected the "source".
Each time i went in I selected the SAN disk and got the same error(basically i didnt read it properly!).

Anyone who gets this error, just check to make sure you select the CD media or installation source.
