Hi There
I have a Prioris Mx 6200 server which was running fedora core 4 without a problem. Seeing as my Linux knowledge is limited, I got fed up with it and decided to have a go installing Win2K Server.
The First stage of installation went OK. Then, after the first reboot, when the GUI should have come up and installation should have carried on, instead I immediately got a 'Hard Disk Error Has Occured'.
Now this system ran without a hitch with Fedora. I'm quite sure there is nothing wrong with my hardware. Obviously this is some sort of software, or config issue.
Can anybody please suggest what I may be doing wrong? I already have the SCSI drivers (Which btw it is an Adaptec AIC-7880) and they seem to go in fine. Could this perhaps be some sort of RAID issue?
God Only Knows. There ya go! Figure this out and I'll personally call you God! Except I'm anti-christian so that could be a problem
Thankyouuuu!!

During the installation, when you see Press F6 if you need to install a third party SCSI or RAID driver , you need to do just that. Install the proper scsi and raid drivers for Windows 2000. This is a classic sign of forgetting or not doing that.
