Instalation Fail: Linux detected the BIOS geometry for /dev/cciss/c0d0 incorrectly

[Aranzazu]

Hello,
I have a new BL45p with no OS. I am trying to install linux RedHat V4 and V3, but there is no way. I get this error message:

"The partition table on /dev/cciss/c0d0 is inconsistent. There are many reasons why this migth be the case. However, the most likely reason is than linux detectec the BIOS geometry for /dev/cciss/c0d0 incorrectly. GNU Parted suspects the real geometry should be 8854/255/63 (not 17433/255/32)[..]"

I attached the complet message error.

How can I solve the problem?

Thanks in advance

Shalom,

The server came with a boot cd.

Stick it in the cd/dvd drive, boot the system.

Configure your storage in some way that works for you.

Save the configuration.

Then boot the RedHat CD and install an OS.
