Fujitsu Primergy B210 with Mylex Acceleraid SCSI card

hey guys,

i've got a problem with my SCSI config. I've set my Raid to be JBOD and wanna install Win XP Pro on one of the drives.

Initially i set the boot sequence with the DVD-ROM as the first boot drive and it went on as usual. After copying and such, it restarts and i set the first boot drive to the SCSI bootable drive.

However, it just restarts without continuing with the installation..

Anyway, the specs is Dual P3 933 Mhz with a Mylex Acceleraid SCSI Raid controller.

Pls advice.

Thanks

What are the boot priority options? If you've got onboard SCSI it complicates things a bit though because any SCSI device option will boot the onboard SCSI rather than the card.

i can only choose 4 types:

- optical drive
- legacy drive (eg fdd)
- ide
- other devices (SCSI and network)

so i chose SCSI and it managed to boot from its onboard scsi controller.

i think its a proprietary board by Fujitsu. i think its made by Asus..

its a System Board D1241 from what i know from Fujitsu's website..
