Hi, I'm having a hard time trying to install FreeBSD 8.0 on an HP Proliant server. To be specific I try to instal the amd64 variant of FreeBSD 8.0 on a ProLiant DL385 G1. Since the server is remote installation is to be done via the virtual CD/DVD of the iLO management. The install process runs smooth up to the point where the install process finishes formatting then I get the following error: "Error mounting /dev/acd0 on /dist: Input/output error (5)" and installation can't proceed. Interestingly that the installation runs from CD up to this point without any problem whatsoever. This can't be a problem with the "CD/DVD" since I've mounted the ISO-image via a virtual drive. I've already tried downloading the ISO again - same result. Likewise I tried with the CD-image instead of the DVD-image - same result :-( So here are my questions: o) has anybody seen symptoms like this on a HP proliant server when installation is done via the "virtual CD/DVD"-drive? o) Any cure against this? Thanks much in advance for any clue, -ewald
