When trying to install RHEL 6.0 64bit under LSI onboard software RAID0 with 2x2TB HDD, booting from the UEFI:[DVD-ROM name] and install the OS when prompts you to reboot, it enters grub interface instead of normal log in interface.

RHEL 6.0 is too old at this point.  Please try with RHEL 6.2 or later to see if the problem persists.  If it does, feel free to reopen this bug with reproducer information, log files, and errors that you receive.

Our product intends to support RHEL 6.0 64bit. So I'm afraid even 6.2 passed, that may not help. Before installation, we also need to input "linux dd virtefi blacklist=ahci", we get this instruction from LSI. Other installation step are normal.
