I can confirm that RHEL4u4 installs fine on these machines (u3 is a different fish). I would second the suggestion to get the SmartStart CD (should have been one with the machine). Also call HP (can't imagine this is a used box).

I have access to the real RedHat ISOs and that is on the list of things to try today.

However one thing I neglected to mention is that this box was running Gentoo quite well (NICs included) -- the only thing we did was remove the Gentoo hard disk and insert a blank one for CentOS.

I'll also try the SmartStart disk anyways.

I believe someone else mentioned that the G2 was different from the older DL585 -- I actually have an older DL585 working well.
