I just tried installing on a Compaq ProLiant DL360 which has a Win2K installation on it from earlier. I installed on partitions after the W2K partition which itself is 3+ GB. So I created a 30 MB boot partition, a 1200 MB swap partition and left the rest ~5.5 GB to /. Formatting seemed to go ok, and I had no other problems thus far. When I pressed next on the final screen before copying the packages I got the following kernel BUG: kernel BUG at cpqarray.c:982! invalid operand: 0000 CPU: 0 EIP: 0010:[<e8c2f603>] EFLAGS: 00010082 eax: 0000001e ebx: e0ebb200 ecx: e7fd8000 edx: c0231d28 esi: e7500134 edi: e74dfe10 ebp: e7a33400 esp: e7e23e94 Process kupdate (pid: 6, stackpage=e7e23000) Stack: e8c30e3b e8c314f1 000003d6 000000e8 00000020 c026fc40 c026fc68 00000002 e0497620 c015702a c026fc40 00000000 000003e8 00004000 c026fc70 e74e2420 00000400 00000000 00000000 00100b60 e74e2420 00000400 00000001 00000100 Call Trace: [<e8c30e3b>] [<e8c314f1>] [<c015702a>] [<c015eb22>] [<c0157165>] [<c012f536>] [<c015719c>] [<c0157423>] [<c01312e8>] [<c0131372>] [<c0107b54>] [<c0131634>] [<c01074fe>] [<c0131560>] Code: 0f 0b c4 0c 8b 57 04 8b 07 89 50 04 89 02 57 e8 2c 7f 52 Cheers Kjartan Maraas

Tried installing Wolverine on this machine today. Got a message saying "No valid devices to install on" or something similar. The install died and the machine rebooted.

Tried installing with qa0309 iso today and it works. Haven't booted the server yet, but it formatted the partitions and started installing package just fine.
