We had some difficulties recently with a dual-Xeon based server that used a add-in Intel Raid Controller (SRCZCR). RAID-5.
We have been using SI 3.15 successfully on several projects but this problem stumped us. We burned several days and then gave up and used Ghost (ug!). Everything goes well until the very end of the download. The systemconfigurator has issues with some of the probing and the install script exits with a failure warning. Booting the box results in a kernel panic but most or all of the files system is clearly on the drive. We focused on the whole booting process and grub but never resolved it. Now that the project is out the door I'm going to try and replicate the same thing with an Adaptec Raid controller that we have and see if it acts the same. BTW, in addition to this problem, we had to install WinXP-Pro in order to setup a Ghost server. WinXP didn't like the Intel Raid either. And, after building the raid drive we periodically found that our BIOS settings (boot priority) had been changed back to default. The raid card was spec'd by the customer not us. Any suggestions.
