Hello all. I'm trying to install CM4.0 on an 8700MS. When i telnet into the system and start the install it asks for server type with several options (Dell / IBM / etc), which should I select?

Thanks
 
OK guys, i sussed it - it is because I had forgotten to put the DAj1 card back into the PCI slot. I took the cards out as it had a few problems - traced to a fault within the processor (swapped and is now OK).

It would occasionaly start boot (BIOS OK, showed RAM / HDD / etc info screen) and start to read hard drive but would fail after about 10 seconds.

hard drive OK - a bit of head scratching!!!

All is well now....
