Server 2012 R2 Data center on Gen6 HP Proliant ML350

[TheHawk]

Hi All

I was wondering if anyone has successfully installed 2012 server on a pre gen 8 HP server.

If so how have you done it, ive seen a few things online about it but no definitive answer.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated

not HP specific but have installed R2 on several older intel servers without too much bother (some older driver support is lacking - for example the prepackaged RAID controller drivers for the servers was much better than the intel one)

I have 2012 R2 running on a ML115 G5 at home, some HDD size limitations but most things work, even with an nvidia chipset!

All sorted turned out to be a dodgy 2012 r2 iso file! DOH!!
