[BlueOnyx:08199] Re: Same mess different BlueOnyx version, using scsi drives

[Chuck Tetlow]

That's weird.  Dell servers, IBM servers, HP servers, and locally built from parts - they've all installed with the BlueOnyx CDs.  In fact, I've never had one fail to install.

Once, one installed that wasn't supposed to!  Someone left a BlueOnyx CD in the drive of a big virtual host.  Local power company dropped power longer than the UPS would carry it.  When it booted back up - the CD was first on the list.  It came up, did that old method pause - and promptly reloaded the whole box as BlueOnyx!  POOF!  Ten virtual servers gone - just like that!  (PS - don't be overly concerned, Micheal added a requirement to hit enter before it takes off installing now)
