<font size="2">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.
<br />
<br />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)

Subject: [BlueOnyx:08196] Same mess different BlueOnyx version, using scsi

SL-6.1 DVD works

What happens when BlueOnyx is added that causes the install CD to barf
<br />>
nanging the drives
<br />>
<br />>
I rebuilt the CentOS-5.5+BlueOnyx CD to get a working version.
<br />>
I did keep some records, It had to do with using the base redhat rpms
<br />>
from a working version.
<br />>
<br />>
So I guess I have to do the same with the SL-6.1+BlueOnyx
<br />>
<br />>
I have many Dell PE servers and IBM eSeries servers that I maintain.
<br />>
We also sell a few, New and Used. The Install CDs will not work on them.
