Hi, this is the first time I install linux on a dell server. Simply I booted from a centos 5.5 x64 dvd but I cant see the disks.. is there something I miss ?
does that system have some form of PERC raid controller? you need to go into the PERC Bios (or use Dell's utility disk and the raid configuratator) and define whatever level of hardware raid you want, creating logical volumes that your OS will see as 'disks'.
Thanks very much to all, now I have understood.. anyway it's a perc s300.. I see I can make a virtual disk read-only... very interesting.. well .. to have a /boot partition read-only is a non-sense... thanks to all again... someone has told "google is your friend" .. ..but I say "I prefer human friend".. :-)
