Re: HP DL180 hangs on boot
Status: As a last resort I tried installing Windows XP pro, but it BSOD on me while probing the hw... Not sure if XP pro is a certified OS for the DL180 but it certainly seems bad. Browsing some HP forums, it seems I'm certainly not the only person having issues with the HP DL180's. Seems like allover crappy and unreliable HW to me. I'll start bugging the retailer now. Thanks for all suggestions, on-list and off-list. /Alexander Alexander Hall wrote: Hi! I have issues booting a HP ProLiant DL180 G5 (456830-421) [1] which I hope someone can shed some light on.

Re: HP DL180 hangs on boot
I'm going to try upgrading the BIOS firmware (there was some update regarding newer intel CPUs; dont know if it applies to the Xeon E5420 but I suppose they wouldn't ship a machine with that processor with a non-working BIOS). Could be worth testing though. Anyway, thanks and don't hesitate to mention anything I might have missed. /Alexander I made a test this morning with a DL 360 G5 with P400i controller: work without any issue (disk declared as RAID-1 and also as RAID-5).
