Hi,
I've already posted this inside the German Astaro Community but nobody responded after roundabout 2 weeks. So this is my last try to find a solution for my problem!
First, I installed ASG on a PC with the following specs:
Intel Celeron D 2,66Ghz
ASUS P4P800-VM Board (Intel 865G Chipset)
1GB RAM
80GB SATA-Harddrive
onboard NIC
3 Intel PCI NICs
Installation went fine, no problems there, but after it needed a reboot it would only show 4 PXE boot straps followed by "no boot device". No chance of booting on this PC.
Second try, different machine:
AMD Athlon 64 2800+
ASUS K8V-MX Board (VIA K8M800 Chipset)
1GB RAM
80GB IDE Harddrive
onboard VIA NIC
3 Intel PCI NICs
same as above, no installation problems, but "no boot device"
I tried it with different BIOS settings regarding LBA on both machines followed by a complete new installation of ASG after every changed setting. It took me about 2 days though I had 4 PCs of the same type (at least for the last one).
After a few hours I checked some stuff with gParted live, and hit the "boot from first internal HDD" button inside the gParted boot menu and it booted my ASG. Although it works, it won't be an accepted solution since that ASG is out of reach most of the time and if there is some power loss or another reason for a reboot it will boot into gParted instead of ASG.
So after all that difficulties I was thinking my CD might be bad, lucky me had a HP DL380 G2 at home
Specs:
Dual P3 1,266GHz
1,25GB RAM
4x 36,4GB SCSI HDD (RAID 0+1)
2x onboard Intel NIC
2x PCI-X Intel GBit-NIC
installed it, rebooted, and got the ASG screen. No problems here, so the CD I used is okay.
Does anyone know how to fix this problem?!
Thanks in advance!
