DL380 G1 Will not bootunless I hit F1

[tittu]

I have a DL380 G1, Dual P3 733MHz with 1GB of RAM. I installed the Compaq CD and created the boot partition.

But when I restart the PC does all the checks and waits at a prompt that says Press F1 to continue or F10 for some options. How can I just make it boot without hitting F1?

I have yet to find any resources on the net for the G1 model. All support is for G2 and above.

Please help, many thanks in advance.

You can disable the F1 prompt in the BIOS. Reboot the server and press F9 (or F10 if there's not an F9) when prompted. This should take you to the RBSU-ROM Based Setup Utility. In here, go to Advanced options and that is where you can disable the F1.

Good luck!
