[rescue] Problems with HP ProLiant DL360 G4 and Solaris 8 intel edition

[Steve Hatle]

Are you using SmartStart to manage the install process? This should
slipstream the necessary drivers in during install, though I have to
admit I've not done a Solaris install on HP/Compaq hardware.
SmartStart should be downloadable from HP. Burn it to a CD, boot from it,
and follow the directions and choose Solaris as your OS you wish to
install.

  Am trying to install Solaris 8 intel edition on to a hp ProLiant
  DL360 G4 but
  with out any success has anyone else ever installed Solaris on to
  this
  server?, I am thinking I may need to upgrade the hard drive firmware
  to
  support Solaris but surely it should just work it says Solaris 8/9/10
  is
  support for system and there is drivers for it but I can not install
  any
  drivers until OS is installed but I get network not found and hard
  drive
  device not found.

  anyone got any ideas thanks.

  Yours
  Simon
