I have a HP Netserver E800 (2x P3 733MHz) with a HP Netraid card with 3x 18GB SCSI drives in a Raid 5 configuration giving ~34GB.
After setting up the drive in the raid menu I started installing server 2003 and created a 20GB partition for 2k3, then the install formatted it NTFS and copied the install files to the drive but after it reboots and tried to complete the 2nd stage of the install I get a message invalid disk press Ctrl + Alt + Delete to restart.
I then used a bootdisk to try fdisk /mbr but fdisk found no drives.
I then remade the Raid 5 drive and used the bootdisk to make the partition but it could only make an 8GB partition maximum, which I did and managed to fully install Server 2k3 and it runs fine but I cannot resize the partition bigger than 8GB.
Any ideas on why I can't make more that 8GB with a bootdisk?
