Re: [WISPA] Stupid MT tricks
Have you tried a netinstall? This always solves my issues when I run into issues with x86 hardware. -- Justin Wilson j...@mtin.net http://www.mtin.net/blog Wisp Consulting Tower Climbing Network Support From: Marlon K.

Nothing fancy. Just a good processor, lots of memory, sata, gigE, etc. Just what a person would normally expect in a new server. 4.9 will load but doesn't see ANY of the ethernet ports. 5.x beta won't install from an ISO image. It locks up something in the machine, even the numlock quits working. How long has PCIE, sata etc. been in common use nowadays??? How can a high tech company with tools that do as many amazing things as MT NOT work with years old but newer technology? It's a crying shame that Imagestream hasn't come up with a good gui and an interface as easy to use as MT's. sigh Anyone need a brand new $1,600 server with a 500gig sata drive and 8 gig DOM in it? Oh yeah, here's the funniest part of this. I ordered a SATA DOM for this box and they shipped it with an IDE power cord! eye roll I feel like Marvin the Martian.

Re: [WISPA] Stupid MT tricks
Been there, done that. Did you check the NIC's against MT's hardware compatability list before ordering? -original message- Subject: [WISPA] Stupid MT tricks From: Marlon K.

Re: [WISPA] Stupid MT tricks
I think the embedded NICs are Broadcom and expansion NICs are Intel in Dell's world. Could be wrong on that though, it's been some time.
