It may want something else/more in the sysidcfg. My memory is hazy, but I
remember similar things on a fleet of V240s that I was bringing on-line.

Is it a full-on interactive mode, or is it just asking for one or two items
and then kicks-off with the automated install again? If you have a console
on the V490 it should say where it is dropping to the interactive install,
like if it can't match a profile, etc.

Is it possible that this V490 has different sized disks than the others? Or
that the existing internal disk has a disklabel on it that could be
confusing things?
