we have a new HP Proliant DL380G5 server with HP smart arrays. There's no internal hard drive installed. when we try to install SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9, in the installation window (Yast), it gives the following error message.
"Error: No Hard disks were found for the installation. Please check your hardware".
If we plug a USB device, the above error message doesn't appear and as the hard disks for the OS to be installed, the usb device (/dev/sda1) is displayed. But no other hard disks.
We have HP Smart Start cd's also. But in all the cd's we have, only windows OS are available. No suse operating systems. But i need to install suse in this server.
Somebody please give me a clue....!
Thanks
