I bought a DL380p Gen8 and installed Proxmox.... But this does not start and I get the following errors in the loop until Busybox starts :/ I've been sitting here for hours now (more than 20) and despairing

Is the BIOS up to date and not corrupt? Can you boot with storage and/or storage controllers disconnected?

Bios is up to date. But what do you mean with Storage Controllers? I mean, i know what it is but i cant disconnect it. Because there is only the HP Raid / Storage Controller qwq
 
Wasn't sure if you had a separate RAID/SCSI controller card, that's all. Since this isn't specifically a Proxmox issue, there's not really much I can suggest here. Perhaps you can reach out to the HP community, see if you can resolve what appears to be a fundamental hardware issue, then try Proxmox again.
 
a liveCD should start the Server always. there is something fundamental wrong with the server. is that a new server ? used Server and have you seen it working ?
to fugure out the issue, as i guess its a storage/harddrive issue - remove all drives (if you can) or check in bios if all drives are recognized

Wait.... i try it with live cd.... i mean hope that works :d
 
than check with the liveCD the Harddrives or whatever storage you have in your server
some liveCD have analytics tools

i just remember as i installed ceph on my cluster - the drives needed to be deleted completly. so go on the drive manager with your liveCD and delete everything on the drive. dont create anything, leave it with proxmox
we can conclude that the issue is something with the drive

The Drive was Completly new :/ idk why it dont work....
 
sometimes a partition table is writen on it. just check it - at least it was the issue in my case, but not with install rather configuration

did you check the hardware with liveCD hardware tools ?
 
which liveCD you are using ?
just start with such CD and go in the GUI, in the menu you will find harddrive manager and other tools
