hello to all,

I recently tried to install RHEL 5.3 on to the server that had previously windows,
upon installing, rebooting my machine it was missing the operating system. Tried to
install again and i got this error (input/output error during read on dev/cciss/c0d0).
I have used two copies of the RHEL 5.3 CD s. and my machines still misses an operating system.
Would anyone be kind enough to give me a solution?

kind regards,

poly (newbie)

Why are you using RHEL 5.3 when 5.7 is available? 5.3 is about 2 years old and 5.7 contains numerous bug fixes and improvements.

This is a CentOS forum and the latest CentOS release is 5.6

Do you need to install the RAID drivers from the HP PSP pack? We run CentOS on HP Proliant servers and it generally seems to be fine once it's installed.

I believe we do install those drivers but I don't know whether that's during the OS installation or afterwards.
