Posted August 1, 2023 Hello I have a Dell PowerEdge R620. I booted Ubuntu server off a usb and installed it on one of the hard drives. However upon reboot I am getting no bootable device found. Not sure where to go from here or what setting I am overlooking. Thanks for the help in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted August 1, 2023 Which RAID card do you have installed? Is it cross-flashed to IT mode? Are you using SATA or SAS drives? I sold my soul for ProSupport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted August 1, 2023 Verify your RAID settings and make sure you have them set up properly. The R620 has a hardware RAID controller, so you'll need to set up your volumes BEFORE you install your OS.

This disables all the RAID functionality in the card, simply passing the drives through to the OS. It's easier to think about, and recommended practice if you use a filesystem like ZFS. https://fohdeesha.com/docs/perc.html I sold my soul for ProSupport.

I am seeing the RAID card in the boot order but not the specific drive, should I? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where did that Linux installation land? Did it install GRUB (or whatever this week's bootloader du jour is?) I sold my soul for ProSupport.

Did it install GRUB (or whatever this week's bootloader du jour is?) I have one disk set as bootable but did not create a virtual raid volume and I believe it did install GRUB.
