Re: [Skunkworks] Help with HP MicroServer G8

Listers, I was told from the manufacturer its a bios issue. So im trying my best to get the bios update, problem is, no peripherals apart from mouse, keyboard and network. I cannot get to install any OS at the moment as the drives arent getting detected but the ROM can access the HP site. We got the servers from Australia. So far no luck but I know its work eventually.

Have you tried resetting the BIOS. Once you reset the BIOS it will be able to pick all the devices connected to the motherboard. On Tue, Oct 28, 2014 at 12:11 PM, Peter Osotsi via skunkworks < skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke> wrote:

Should you need to, most Operating Systems support 'USB installation' Tony.

Tony, not even USB drive is working, I could have run live dvd. HP Australia is assisting, the computers were imported for some work. I can enquire how much they cost. Clearing cost us more. Peter On Tue, Oct 28, 2014 at 12:32 PM, Tony Likhanga <tlikhanga@gmail.com> wrote:
