I have an HP Proliant DL380e with a 1TB SAS Drive and I am trying to install ubuntu server 12.04 on it. I have created a RAID array using Array Controller Utility and had a RAID0 logical volume configured on that array. I also set this logical volume as the primary bootable device. Having done this, I believe installing ubuntu on the created volume should be as smooth as it can be.
However, it seems I am so wrong... During the installation process, the installer does not detect my SAS Drive. When the installer gets to partitioning disks, it only avails the option to "Configure iSCSI Volumes". When I checked the /var/log/syslog file. I see that the installer tries to detect SATA Drives but finds none.
Are there any custom configurations I need to make to get the installer to successfully detect my SAS Drive? I can't quite figure out what I need to do get the installer to detect my SAS Drive. Thanks in advance.
