Hi Connie, Booted SL5.6 from cpqarray to prove network was operational, 30 ms due south :) Booted SL6 boot.iso, same error reported earlier. Using info from ctrl-alt-f3 & f4, determined that SL6 reverses eth0 with eth1 relative to SL5.6 boot.iso. The two FastE controllers are mac 00:04:76+ and 00:50:8b+. One is on the mother board (TI ThunderLAN), the other on the bus. Switched to SL-6-i386-2011-02-11-LiveMiniCD.iso, booted without boot: kernel parms, with the following result: uhci-hcd 0000:00:14.2 Found HC with no IRQ, Check BIOS/PCI 0000:00:14.2 setup! uhci-hcd 0000:00::14.2 init 0000:00:14.2 fail, -19 LOCK UP requiring POR Verified that SL5.6 would still boot without a problem. Verified that KNOPPIX_V6.4.3CD-2010-12-20-EN.iso would boot without a problem. Verified that NetBSD's i386cd-5.0.2.iso would install without a problem. Sibling CL1850Rs have been and are running CentOS 4.8 in production without a problem. Ran HP/Compaq Firmware Utility 7.2; it upgraded _only_ two new disk drives which had been put into the array. kind [log in to unmask]
