Unable to Install Windows 2003 Server on Dell Poweredge 1950 II with a Perc 5/I Raid Controller

Hello,

I have been trying to install Windows 2003 on a PE 1950 II with a Perc 5/I controller using raid-1.

It doesn't work with booting the Server 2003 disk (no hard drive found), also tried using F6 and a floppy drive with the perc 5/i driver, same problem.

In the RAID Bios (Ctrl-R) I created the VD Chose both drives, initialized it,  and ran a Consitancy Check.

After creating the virtual disk in the raid bios, it says "space available 0mb" under "disk group 0 properties".  However "virtual disk properties" shows the full size the RAID should be.  Is there a step I am missing?

On bootup:

Bios is at 1.10 2.70

Power Edge Exanpanble Raid V 5.0.1 Build Dec 1 2005

PERC 5/I 6.0.2-003

I have tried using he USB Flash utility to load the driver and sipstream to add the drivers into the setup DVD Disk.

Am I not using the correct driver?


Thanks in advance for any help

 

Kevin
