IBM X3550 M4 Installation windows2008 cannot identify the hard drive (already in detail)

IBM X3550 M4 installation windows2008 hard Drive not recognized

First, the problem description

The Company entered a new one IBMX3550 M4, want to install windows2008. The installation process encountered cannot find the hard disk, the original English is "no drives were found. Click Loaddriver to provide a mass storage driver for installation. ". But there are no problems with installing CentOS6.5 and Windows , which have already been tested.

Second, the solution of ideas

2. This is 1 new machines, need to do RAID, I do is RAID1.

4. do after RAID1, the installation process still encountered cannot find the hard disk, but at this time you need to download windows2008 RAID driver, let you now install windows2008 can recognize RAID1. I will add a link for download to use.

6. This will find the hard drive, but still cannot install windows2008, you need to pass the DOS command to modify the GPT partition to MBR The partition format.

8. installed windows2008, found unable to surf the internet, at this time need to install network card driver.

Third, the installation process

Create Raid

(refer to the online information, re-do RAID and installation system is more troublesome, next installation, then collect pictures, re-write this part)

prepare for this machine as needed. RAID10 , the steps are as follows:

A. Start the machine, the self-test process will have <CTRL>+<H> prompts, while pressing the two keys and then click START, you can enter the Webbios Graphical Setup interface. Example:

ClearConfiguration: Clears the existing configuration information, noting that all data is lost.
New configuration: Clears the existing configuration information and creates a new configuration.
Addconfiguration: Preserves the original configuration information and adds a new hard disk to the original configuration. (This configuration usually does not cause data loss, but the operation is risky and it is recommended to back up the data first!) )
Note: If you select the first two options ( Clear configuration and New configuration), you will lose all
Data! Please back up all data first! If it's a new machine, don't worry about it.

C. Next, we select New Configuration, click on the left side of the selected disk, and then select Addtoarray to add it to the right diskgroups , Add two disks to a group, and then click Accept DG After creating the first group .

D. Configuring raid10 requires the creation of two disk Group with the same number of physical hard disks as shown in.

F. Enter the configuration RAID10 parameter interface and modify the corresponding parameters as required. Parameters such as Strip Size and RAID level. (It is generally recommended to select the default setting.) After the configuration is complete, click the Accept button.

here, you can identify your hard drive, but you can't install windows2008 yet .

through DOS command changes GPT partition to MBR partition format

650) this.width=650; "Src=" Http://s4.51cto.com/wyfs02/M00/84/32/wKiom1eIWl3RreD-ABGj6WGXVcs445.jpg-wh_500x0-wm_3 -wmp_4-s_3893849979.jpg "title=" img_20160713_170744.jpg "alt=" Wkiom1eiwl3rred-abgj6wgxvcs445.jpg-wh_50 "/>

A. See the above figure is, press SHIFT+F10 to enter the Dos interface

DiskPart

List Disk # you will see that the GPT on Disk 1 has an * number indicating that disk 1 is a GPT partition.

Select Disk 1 # Choose your disks, usually the larger one, depending on the situation.

Clean

The simplest, double-click, Next, Next.

Iv. Summary

1, when installing windows2008 on IBM X3550 M4, it took a long time to find information on the Internet and began to suspect that it was not suitable for this line of work. So it's important to stick to it.

2, each time you install windows2008 on IBM X3550 M4, you need a raid driver for windows2008, sothe raid Drive to be backed up well. This is a disadvantage.
