Hi all
I have been trying to install ESX 3i onto my ML115 G1 Server. I am unable to get this working.
The server has a MCP55 SATA Controller and a broadcom BCM5721 NIC.
Obviously as per other posts I am unable to install to SATA Storage.
I followed the advice on creating the USB bootable image using Winimage. In Disk Management I can see the USB Drive (2gb in size) has 4 partitions.
When I boot I get:
Cannot get bank 1 paramaters.
Warning: Bank 1 partition type invalid. Ignoring.
Cannot get bank 2 paramaters.
Warning: Bank 2 partition type invalid. Ignoring.
Panic: No useable banks found.
I am unable to get past this. I have checked the bios settings. Firmware on the G1 is latest available.
I know it works fine on the ML115 G5, this is a G1 server.
Can anyone help? Is it the server or is the USB image corrupt?
Thanks
N.
