Re: Can't install Red Hat Linux on HP DL380 G4
The link below has the install directions
http://h18000.www1.hp.com/support/files/server/us/download/22028.html
but the instructions talk about installing after the OS is up, the other way to create the driver disk is take this to another linux or any unix server unzip and get the files and then use dd to copy to floppy.Windows rawrite might work you can check on that.

Re: Can't install Red Hat Linux on HP DL380 G4
Try the instructions on this document, it's the Red Hat 3.0 installation guide on Proliant servers ?
http://h200007.www2.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c00257687/c00257687.pdf
Hope it helps,

Re: Can't install Red Hat Linux on HP DL380 G4
How do you install? Please tell us:
- You setup Linux as OS in the BIOS?
- You configured the Smart Array from the 'BIOS'?
- You created driver diskettes for the array?
- You boot from CD
- Insert the driver diskette when asked
- And what happens next?

Re: Can't install Red Hat Linux on HP DL380 G4
- can you please send us "lsmod" output:
- go to 2nd virtual screen during installation by "CTRL-ALT-F2"
- lsmod
- BTW, "Did you configure your array disk before installing Red Hat ?" - it means, you should greate "logcal disk" [logical volume?] using "RAID controller BIOS" interface or from HP CDROM

Re: Can't install Red Hat Linux on HP DL380 G4
1.the BIOS doesn't have linux option,I have install one G3 server, G3 have this option,but my G4(I have 2 G4 mashine) don't have this option
2.I have config from BIOS and set as RAID0+1
3.I have use the newest driver version "cpq_cciss-2.4.50-30.rhel3.i386.dd.gz" to create a disk drive.
4.I boot from RHEL3.0 update 3's CD
5.I have insert the disk I created for the array,but after scaning from the driver disk,it shows "No device of the appropriate type were found on this drive disk,would you like to manually select the driver,continue anyway,or load another driver disk?"
the driver disk contains *modinfo *modules.cgz *modules.dep *pcitable *rhdd-6.1 total five files
Can you find where the question is?
(the RHEL3.0's kernel is 2.4.21-20)
(the driver's manaul writes it suit for Red hat kernel 2.4.21-9 & 2.4.21-15)..I guess this is the question..? or am I wrong?

Re: Can't install Red Hat Linux on HP DL380 G4
In fact, I don't think patchlevel is the problem because we installed RHEL 2.1 on DL360G4 [the same Smart Array 6i] without problem!
2. do you see sd_mod and scsi_mod ?

Re: Can't install Red Hat Linux on HP DL380 G4
(By the way: I once had problems installing RH9 on a DL360. It had a strange problem with the CD: You boot from CD, and when the installation starts it asks you for the source, you say CD and it cannot find it. This was caused by a problem in the Linux kernel on the INSTALLATION CD. I mention this, because there is a difference between the kernel on the installation CD and the kernel on the installed system.)
Also check HGN's reply in that thread.

Re: Can't install Red Hat Linux on HP DL380 G4
I re-config my disk array and use the Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS3.0 update3,and the install disk can drive the disk array well,it won't install other driver.
Thanks all!
