Verify that the operating system is supported by the driver.

Issue

Solution

1) Windows creates the NTFS partition ok, but

then reports that “The hard disk containing
the partition or free space you chose has a
LUN greater than 0. Setup cannot
continue”. (Dell 1850 server).

2) Windows reboots successfully, but then gets

stuck during the GUI portion of the
installation right from the beginning. (HP
DL385G2 server).

Set up the FCoE switch ports as follows:
• no priority-flow-control mode on
• untagged cos 0
• flowcontrol receive on
• flowcontrol send on
• spanning-tree port type edge

The system is showing an excessive number of
I/O timeouts as a result of the switch routing
frames to the incorrect port.

Ensure that the LACP is not used on the
FCoE port.
