Hello,
I'm trying to install Mac OS X Server on a Dell PowerEdge 850 server and I have some troubles...
iPC 10.5.6 won't boot at all (com.apple.boot.Slist not found at boot loader)
Hazard Server 10.5.6 boot but hangs with "Still waiting for root device" (see the screenshot)
The Dell PE 850 has an IDE DVD-ROM drive, a DRAC4 card which is emulating an IDE DVD-ROM reader, 2 SATA 250 Go RAID1 HDD, two Broadcom nics and an Intel P4 processor
Here is the lspci output on debian lenny:

So what can I do in order to install Mac OS X Server on this server ?
I cannot physically change the DVD-ROM or HDDs because of the form factor.
Thanks for your help.
