I have a Dell Poweredge 2200 with dual 266MMX processors and 256mb ram. I have 6 - 4.3gb HDD and external Adic Dat tape storage. Extra Adaptec for Adic. I was able to load Red Hat 9.0 on here before. However, it crashed and I started again many imes. What happens is that right after the format of the hard drives and it starts to load the OS on to the HDD, the server does a cold reset. Has any one ever run across this problem? Is there a fix for the problem? I was told by another to load Red Hat Linux 8 then upgrade.

I also took a demo copy of Windows server 2003 and loaded it on this server to see if was a hardware problem. Server has been up running W2003 for over a week with no reboots.
So I guess that clears up the hardware issues possiblility.

Any help would be appreciate it.
