[rescue] FS/FT HP DL580 G2

[Jonathan Katz]

All,

On my last e-mail I mentioned I had an HP DL580 G2 that wasn't working.
That's not quite true. After reseating some things and blowing out some of
the dust, it works just fine. Here are the specs:

4x 2.7Ghz Xeon CPUs (32 bit.) 4GB of RAM. Shows as 8 CPUs with hyper
threading turned on. 4x 36GB SCSI disks with the hardware RAID controller
(right now setup to look like a single 64GB disk.)

It's running an older rev of CentOS right now, but it will run Solaris x86
with boot drivers available from HPQ (required for the RAID array.)

Has integrated ILO and a PCI slot with a dual gigabit ethernet NIC.

I have one 120V power cable for it; it does have both power supplies and 2x
AC inputs, but runs fine off of one. This system uses the
