[[SOLVED] HP Proliant N40L MicroServer native support]

I have the same problem as what was posed by dtovee (see below). and also psikonetik later...

 

I tracked it down to the image writing process is not writing the complete image. I tried 4 different images, 3 different USB sticks, 2 computers, and both win32DiskImager and HDD RawCopyTool. I also tried to create a 35MB partition first on my 16G USB stick, and also tried formatting to ext2 and FAT. None of these helped. I am still getting only a 16M partition even tho the img file is 32M. I tried googling for the DiskImager problem but no joy so far. What am I missing??? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Help! & first post to this forum so I hop it ends up in the right place.

 

I can't seem to see what I am doing wrong but I can't seem to get the installer on the USB stick to run without errors and then stopping.

 

I have tried XPEnology_DS3612xs_2668_4.1++ and the one in this forum synoboot_microserver.img

(https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B5tpWhE ... BkN3c/edit).

I used the Win32 Disk Imager to install it on three different USB sticks.

The microserver seems to boot from the memory stick OK but then gets stuck. It seems to see the network card OK but then:

"...

[ 13.552788] sde: sde1 sde2

[ 13.559352] sd 4 :0 :0 :0 [sde] No Caching mode page present

[ 13.559418] sd 4 :0 :0 :0 [sde] Assuming drive cache : write through

[ 13.559476] sd 4 :0 :0 :0 [sde] Attached SCSI removable disk"

 

My HP N40L microserver is standard except it has 8GB of ram, a DVD drive and a Seagate 3TB (it still has the original 250GB installed). I have disconnected the Seagate & DVD ROM.

 

Can anybody give me a hint to where I am going wrong as I would really like to have a go at running this system?
