Thank You pharwood.
I'm sure more questions are coming, right now I'm in the process of configuring hardware, I had Fedora core 4 installed already, it's a bit quirky, but so was windows when I first started, I'm also a newbie to Linux.
Thanks for the reply pharwood
I have 6 drives onboard the proliant 3000 and have a U1 external storage unit6 drives also. I have both a 221 and 3200 controller, but having trouble loading rompaq(unsuccessful upgrade). I'll try to get them both working.
Are you saying that in order to utilize...
I have a Compaq Proliant 3000, with 6, 18.2 GB hard drives on board. I purchased a U1 Storage unit and a smart array 221 controller. I need to know if I need to change the internal cabling? I see the controller has a connector for an internal scsi cable. Do I need to disconnect, where the hard...
I'm not sure what you mean by 14 and 15 slots? I can't seem to get the onboard video to work, but put in a PCI video card, and it is working, of course the first video card didn't, so I put another in and it's up and running. I have a proliant 3000 about the same vintage (I think), and I have...

I really don't want to post my email here, but if you have yahoo messenger, my id is: midaryl and I will give you my email address there, (spammers you know). I was looking for a way to PM you from here, but there doesn't seem to be a way to. Again thanks for all your help.
Thanks hiwayman1, I'm going to attempt to load Fedora Core 4. I have never done linux as of yet, so I'm expecting a long learning curve. I have update the Rompaq to P09, if that is the question you are asking. I will have to do more research on my error message, I will aquire a new smart array...
Well, I did get the system to boot, only by removing the smart array controller. The "101 I/O Rom Error" goes away when I remove the controller, so I'm thinking a new controller is in the near future, but I'm hope to get an OS installed (linux) any points would be great. Thanks hiwayman1 for...
I'll try it when I get the SmartStart CD. What is the OS on your server? Andother question, is the BIOS store on a drive? I cannot access the bios, I'm thinking I deleted it.
Did you ever get this server (3000) up and going? I've been working on one for a week with no success as of yet. I did locate a SmartStart cd, however it is version 4.3.
So the error "101 I/O Rom Error" I shouldn't be to concerned about till I recieve the SmartStart CD? I'm thinking my problem is deeper, cause I cannot even get to a DOS prompt, the system hangs stops at the error message.
Hello
I'd like to know how/what you did? I recent purchased a 3000, I did the system erase, and now I cannot boot it. It will go as far as checking the system and I get an error message "101 I/O Rom Error" Now I cannot even get to a prompt, or boot screen, it won't let me go any further. I have...
