Installing VM Server v2.2.1 on Dell PE T110 hangs at loading initrd.img

Hello,
I'm trying to install VM Server v2.2.1 on a Dell PowerEdge T110. I burned OracleVM-Server-2.2.1.iso to a CD, booted the T110, got to the Oracle VM Server installation screen, entered:
boot: /isolinux/vmlinuz initrd=/isolinux/initrd.img
pressed enter, and see the following two messages:
loading /isolinux/vmlinuz...............................
loading /isolinux/initrd.img.......
How long should loading initrd.img take? I've waited as long as 30 minutes with no further evident progress. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Matt

I suspect there may be a problem with the cdrom you burned. It is supposed to start executing the kernel after the initrd is loaded. Verify that the iso image you downloaded is intact, and maybe try burning another copy.

  • Loading initrd.img install CD boot up error

    This is the error I get when trying to boot up the install CD, 0.7.2.
    boot:
    Loading vmlinuz.....................................
    Loading initrd.img...isolinux: Disk error FE, AX = 4280, drive 9F
    Boot failed: press a key to retry...
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I downloaded the ISO from the sticky and it got farther into the install process, but now I get another error.
    EIP: [<c012a1be>] cpu_callback+0x28e/0x2d0 SS:ESP 0068:c1133f80
    <0>Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!"
    There is also a lot of other information before that on the screen, but it's a lot to typ out.  If it's absolutely needed I guess I could take a picture of it on the monitor.
    I didn't know if I should start a new thread about this or not, sorry.

  • Installing SQL Server 2008 R2 on a Dell Desktop with MS Server 2008

    Due to some new software (Multiverse) our business server with MS server 2003 is going to be migrated to MS Server 2008. This migration went well but now comes the problem: I bought MS SQL Sever 2008 R2 also required for the new software and tried to install
    this. At first you can test if you have the minimum requirements; that went well, all was green. When I tried to install SQL Server 2008 R2 the first thing I got to see that my OS was the wrong one and the Installation couldn't go on. I'm logged in as administrator
    and the fire wall is down. Got no anti virus software running....what is going on? Can you please help me?
    Best Regards,
    Erwin

    LOL :-) YES!
    SBS is not the same as windows 2008 r2! You asked on one OS but you use different version :-)

  • Error Installing SQL Server Express 2008: '' is not a valid login or you do not have permission.

    I have tried installing SQL Server 2008 multiple times on my machine, and I always receive this error about 3/4 of the way through: '' is not a valid login or you do not have permission.
    I have tried installing both SQL Server Express 2008 with Tools and SQL Server Express 2008 with Advanced Services, and they both fail the same way. I am trying to do a new stand-alone installation.
    I'm running Windows XP Home Edition SP3.
    Looking into the error, some forums say I have to install it from THE Administrator account, and not an account with administrator permissions; it also cannot be in Safe Mode, because then the Windows Installer won't work. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to login to the Administrator account. I can go to the home login screen, do ctrl+alt+del twice, and attempt to login to the Administrator account, but I receive this error: Unable to Log You on because of an Account Restriction.
    Other forums say that in the Server Configuration section, all you have to do is provide the username and a strong password from an administrative account on the computer, and it doesn't have to be THE Administrator. Well, I did that, but for some reason it doesn't recognize my username and password, it says something like "The credentials you provided for the SQL Server Agent are invalid". BUT THOSE ARE THE CORRECT CREDENTIALS FOR MY ADMINISTRATIVE USER! So I'm forced to use one of the accounts without a password, like NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM. That's the only way I can get past this step.
    Also, just FYI, on the next step, which is Database Engine Configuration, I am using Mixed Mode for the Security Mode. I AGAIN provide a password, and then add my current user (who IS an administrator on my machine!) to the SQL Server Administrators box.
    But yet, it fails every single time.
    This is pathetic and ridiculous. I must have tried to install this thing 15 times, that is not an exaggeration. I'm posting this on several other forums as well, maybe an MVP or Bill Gates himself can help me.
    I have one of the log files from a failed installation. If someone would like to see it, I will post it.

    Have a nice day
    PS : if you are talking about the Sql Server Agent Service, it is disabled for Sql Server Express. It is enabled only for the Workgroup/Standard/Dev and Entreprise Editions
    Sorry, but I've tried the suggestion in that link, and it hasn't helped me.
    For anyone wonder, the link is talking about the problem in Server Configuration where I enter my Windows user account and password (which is in the Administrative group), but it says the credentials are invalid.  The link suggests that you need to either enter your Windows account (which I did, and it wouldn't let me go to the next step), or to use one of the built in accounts (which I also tried, but it gave me the " '' is not a valid login" error during the installation).
    Any other ideas?
    I haven't had any answers from any other forums either, so I'll just post my log file in case anyone wants to look at this:

  • Installing SQL Server 2014 Express package as ClickOnce prerequisite

    I'm using clickOnce and deploying an installer with it.
    I have tried various settings. Using SQL Server 2008 Express and SQL Server 2012 Express as prerequisite is all ok (I've dowloaded them and set the option of clickonce "download prerequisites from the same path of app").
    Now I'm trying to do the same thing with SQL Server 2014 Express.
    Since the SQL Server 2014 Express package isn't alredy done line 2008 and 2012 versiones, I'm trying to create it.
    I have done and it seems to work, but while installing it gives error number **-2054422506**. It is a very generic error and I don't understand it.
    It appears a pop up saying the installation is stopped because it is an error installing SQL Server Express 2014 and to look the log for more infos.
    The log only says:
        Installing using command     
        'C:\Users\VIRTUA~1\AppData\Local\Temp\VSD24F4.tmp\SqlExpress2014\
        SQLEXPR32_x86_ITA.EXE' and parameters '/q /action=Install /features=SQL
        /instancename=SQLEXPRESS /securitymode=SQL /sapwd=234692Is  
        /sqlsvcaccount="NT Authority\Network Service'
        Process exited with code -2054422506
        Status of package 'SQL Server 2014 Express' after install is 'InstallFailed'
    So, I've tried to install SQL Server 2014 Express manually, without ClickOnce, and it works. So I think I've made some mess in the xml file of the package.
    My package is so build (in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v8.1A\Bootstrapper\Packages\):

    I've copied the SqlExpressChk.exe file from the SQL Server 2012 Express package, hoping it is the same (2008 and 2012 versions seems the same, so I supposed it also for the 2014).
    I've delete the part in package.xml about the publicKey, since I don't know it and, further, I think I don't need it.
    In the same file, I've inserted custom parameters, first like in the 2008 and 2012 versions, then doing some attempts (without success).
    Did anyone have this problem? How did you have manage it?
    **NOTE**: I'm using my clickOnce deploy in an empty virtual machine, so there aren't any conflicts o something similar.
    More attempts, more failures, always the same error! I'm deleting the optional stuff to study better the core of the xml, but still no success.. does microsoft have a package of sql server 2014 express?

    refer to this link

    thanks! =)
    SqlServer usually runs a file (SqlExpressChk.exe) to see if there is already an installation and a sql instance called sqlExpress (for the express installations). Do you know how can do this test with the bootstrapper manifest generator?
    I am not able to test it currently, but I assume that will also check whether that has installed.
    You have tested it, right?

  • Unable to Install Windows Server 2012 R2; system aborts and reboots after first blue Windows logo appears

    System:  Dell PowerEdge sc1420 with dual xeon and Adaptec 2420SA SATA RAID (supported by OS); 10 GB memory (2x4, rank 2, organization x4, in DIMM1 & DIMM2; 2x1, registered, organization x8, in DIMM3 & DIMM4)
    This computer is currently running Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise which was installed with no problems.
    Objective: clean install of Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard on an otherwise unused RAID array disk set.
    All attempts to boot from DVD result in loading of files (grey progress bar on bottom of screen), brief dark screen, then black screen with a blue windows logo for about 2 seconds and then a flash of about 10 lines of error notifications on a black screen
    for about 1/4 second (unreadable), and then a reboot of the computer.
    Coreinfo.exe confirms that cpus DO support NX and PAE; do NOT support VMX (virtual machine enhancements).
    Attempts to run memtest.exe from boot disk tool-menu startup result in an error message that the memtest.exe file is corrupt.
    Running memtest.exe from Windows 2008 R2 install disk results in all memory tests passed!
    Attempted booting with multiple DVD's (some +R, some -R, all verified) burned from .iso.  These DVD's were used successfully to install Windows Server 2012 R2 on an HP Pavilion.  Also changed DVD drives just to rule out DVD hardware. 
    Running CHKDSK from Windows 2012 R2 on HP Pavilion shows no problems; running CHKDSK from Windows 2008 R2 on the Dell system on the same disks shows some problems.  Running checkdisk on the Windows 2008 R2 install disk from the Windows 2008 R2 installed
    system shows no problems.  All disks burned and verified on same system.
    Also attempted to boot from USB thumbdrive with copy of DVD on it.  Same results: system loads files then reboots at first Windows logo.  So that would rule out disk quality issues per se??
    Started to try an upgrade rather clean install to see if any errors were announced.  None were announced as the system went through much of the process.  I aborted somewhere along the way before committing to the upgrade because 1) the most likely
    outcome was it would not boot after install (I don't really need the practice in restoring); and 2) even if it did reboot, having a system that can't be repaired by booting the install disk is pointless.
    All disks and raid arrays are recognized and usable by RAID controller card and by Windows Server 2008 R2.  Disks are within spec for use with Adaptec 2420SA (1TB @ 300).
    Is VMX (aka VT-x) actaully required for ANY install even though Hyper-V is not intended to be used?  If so, it is too bad that the Microsoft system requirements (
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn303418.aspx ) don't make that clear.  And lack of VMX support really doesn't explain the memtest.exe "corruption" issue. 
    Or is it maybe something unique about the files on 2012 R2 disk (or disk image on USB) that are causing some problem with the chipset processing?  But why?
    My vote would be for the latter of the issues, but I have no clue why or if it is remediable.  Suggestions? 

    So here is what I think is the final understanding of this problem:
    First, one additional piece of important information:  The computer successfully moves into and through the Windows Boot Loader phase and succeeding phase ONLY for Windows 8.1 32-bit, but NOT for Windows 8.1 64-bit nor for Windows
    Server 2012 R2 (only 64-bit).
    The Windows Boot Manager phase (which precedes the Windows Boot Loader phase) is either 32-bit or 64-bit (64 –bit for this case) and is loaded by the 16-bit stub program (Bootmgr) which starts in real mode. 
    Windows Boot Loader of course runs in either 32-bit or 64-bit (64 –bit for this case) according to the product being installed.
    By inference, the essential problem is occurring in conjunction with the loading of a WIM file to start the Windows Boot Manager. 
    The boot manager starts ok and generally shows its essential screens (Windows Boot Manager; Advanced Boot Options) or proceeds to load files for transition into Windows startup in the succeeding Windows Boot Loader phase (that doesn’t “boot” but rather
    loads the system).  This is best confirmed by the announced corruption of the memtest.exe file when selecting Windows Memory Diagnostic from the Windows Boot Manager Screen. 
    If allowed to continue loading files to pass control to the Windows Boot Manager, the type of abort and resulting immediate restart that occurs is that which you would associate with unhandled cpu exceptions (invalid instruction, memory out of range,
    wild interrupt, etc.) that most of us have not commonly seen for 20 years (since beginning to use well behave OS’s from Windows NT 3.1 and on).
    So, the problem obviously is due to a failure to properly mount the WIM file and/or properly access it (probably the latter) when running in 64-bit protected mode. 
    This is independent of the hardware on which the install disk is actually mounted (DVD or USB-flash), so it is NOT a hardware problem
    per se.
    Since the WIM is mounted early in the process, Boot Manager may well have loaded it using BIOS routines to access the physical device on which it resides rather than loading 32-bit or 64-bit drivers of its own. 
    Hence, if the BIOS does not “mount” the WIM in a way that is later fully compatible with access from the 64-bit systems being loaded, it could cause apparent file corruption. 
    If it is only partially incompatible some functionality may appear quite usable (like loading files) until later detected. 
    This is vague on my part, because the exact nature of the incompatibility cannot be readily determined from the information available. 
    But the consequence is the same: the system cannot boot from the install disk, either for initial installation or repairs.
    Incidental conclusion:  The 64-bit boot manager code for Windows Server 2008 does not exhibit this faulty behavior, but the 64-bit code for Windows Server 2012 does. 
    So the problem is not inherent with loading 64-bit server OS’s.
    Expectations:  If the system were to be upgraded using the features of the install disk while running an installed OS, say Windows Server 2008 R2, it might well succeed and yield a fully functional system upgraded to Windows Server 2012
    R2 (because the installed operating system is started from discrete files, not from a WIM file). 
    However, in order to perform a disaster recovery using Windows resources (such as image backups from Windows Server Backup), one would have to presumably boot from a Windows Server 2012 64-bit install disk or Windows Server USB recovery drive. 
    Of course we know that the Windows Server install disk will not boot and we can be fairly sure that the problem will migrate to any Windows Server USB recovery drive that is created. 
    My inspection of a Windows 7 System Repair CD shows that is based exclusively on boot.wim, not discrete files! 
    Of course a generated image for a WIM for Windows 2012 USB recovery drive
    might not have the flaw that drives this behavior, but it probably would.
    Problem conclusion:  A BIOS upgrade would be required for compatibility with Windows Server 2014 clean installation
    and any maintenance; and none is available from the OEM.
    Problem not resolved, but understood for future reference.
    Thanks to Tim whose comments helped me focus my thinking.

  • Can't install VM Server 3.0

    Hi,
    I was at the Oracle VM 3.0 launch and was so impressed I wanted to try it out. I am booting the Oracle VM 3.0 server DVD onto a computer and I get the following on the screen:
    CM32 Multiboot Loader v.0.1 Copyright (c) 2005 Tim Deagan.
    Kernel: xen.gz
    Loading xn.gz.............
    Module: vmlinuz
    Loading vmlinuz...................
    Module: intird.img
    Loading intird.img................
    Fatal: can't find space for this module.
    (and then it tries it again, and repeats the above messages..)
    I get this on 2 different computers: one a Dell AMD64 chip machine with 4G, and the other an HP dual core machine w/ Asus motherboard and 4G also.
    I have a fresh 1TB disk to use. I thought it was an issue w/ the disk or formatting it, so I installed OEL5 and formatted the disk with /boot, swap and
    / (980GB) and ran it as a linux server for 10 min, then Oracle VM again.
    Note: The Dell computer was running Oracle VM server 2.2 - wel at least I had done a successful install several times. My next step is to go reinstall 2.2 and install 3.0 on top of it, in case nothing else works.
    Please help me identify the problem. If there is another obvious thread, please just point me to it (so frustrated arrhghg) Thanks Joe

Note that it's a CD, not a DVD. Perhaps try at a lower speed. This looks like it's failing to unpack the basic boot system.

    This looks like a follow up of Re: Error after installing Oracle Enterprise Linux (Release 5) on Dell T 110
    Can you give more details what you are trying to do or trying to accomplish. Where are you trying to ping to?
    It could be that you have not defined your gateway or DNS server for name to IP mapping. What is the output of

  • Password Complexity problems on fresh install of Server 2012 R2, This has not been answered before....

    Hello all,
    I have a problem that I can't find the solution to. I have found others with the same problem but the answers provided to them were not the exact situation I am in currently. Please read all the text and see if you can answer this...
    I downloaded a copy of Windows Server 2012 R2. I am installing it on a stand alone PRE OWNED server which is a Dell R900 quad quad core server with 16gb ram and 500gb drive. The drive has been initialized and configured perfectly and windows server has been
    loaded.
    Upon the start of it, the screen appears that tells you to change your password for the admin account. Upon putting ANY (and I do mean ANY) password in there regardless of the complexity, the machine comes back with ..." The password you typed does
    not meet the password complexity requirements set by the administrator for your network or group. Get the requirements from your administrator, and then type a new password."
    I have tried new drives with no luck, I have tried everything that one can try on this (except the right thing of course). My guess is that the machine retained some crazy complex password file and stored it in an EEprom on board. If this was a factory fresh
    machine, I would guess that this wouldn't be an issue as there was no file created yet that the machine is running it's scripted denial from. So... Does anyone have the exact method for eradicating this file or changing the domain controller or file that
    controls this complexity problem WITHOUT HAVING TO LOG INTO THE MACHINE since as I said, you can't log into it. I even tried to go in through Linux to find the password in the SAM and since it's a new copy of windows, and there is no passwords in there, it
    couldn't find the file since the admin acct wasn't set up yet (but that domain controller is working it's butt off and keeping me out I tell ya! lol)
    Any help would be appreciated more than you know! ...Scott

    Hello Phillip,
    Thanks for the reply! Yes, the drive was put in the machine with no other drives (500gb SAS) and installed/initialized without incident. The DVD was put in the DVD drive and the OS was installed on the machine. As the machine starts up again after
    install (reboots) the text comes up that says that you have to change the password on the administrator account due to this being the first install of the OS. I put in a password, and then put it in again, then get the statement about the password being entered
    doesn't meet the complexity level set on the domain controller and to contact the admin of the network. I then looked up what that was referring to and used a series of passwords that should have worked as they matched the exact complexity that windows stated
    in their tech knowledge base. Such as ... P@ssw0rd and another like Pass\/\/0rd!! as well as quite a few others with various names and symbols. Each time meeting or exceeding the 8 chars with upper and lower case with symbols
    present. Each and every time that complexity statement in yellow comes up.
    I tried changing and initializing 2 more disks and downloading another copy of windows server 2012 R2 and tried it all again. Still the exact same thing. I have never seen anything like this before. I have installed windows server 2003 and 2008 in the past
    many times without errors like this but this one really has me beat as to what is wrong.
    I read a tidbit on a way to go to DOS and take some files from the DVD and copy them to certain locations on the drive the OS is installed on. That is supposed to write over the files that provide the complexity issues but where ever I saw it, they didn't
    go into detail as to what exactly to do. I know others have had the same problem in the past but every answer I can see either doesn't address the question or provides the wrong answer altogether.
    That's why I am posting here in a last ditch effort to save this project since the same exact problem is happening when I tried to install windows server 2008 R2 as well. I thought I may be able to just go with 2008 and get that running without the issue
    but when I wipe the drives completely, and reinstall onto the drive the 2008 version, the exact same thing comes up.
    If you have a solution, I would love to hear it! Thanks again...Scott

  • Error while installing SQL Server 2012 X64 SP2,

    Error while installing SQL Server 2012 X64 SP2,
     When I installed the SQL Server 2012 X64 SP1, I got the attached error.
     What might be the issue here?
     Thank you
     Best
    Jamal

    Hello,
    Are you trying to install SQL Server on a compressed or encrypted drive? SQL Server won’t install on a drive/folder with these attributes.
    Are you trying to install SQL Server on a ReFS file system? It is not supported on SQL Server 2012.
    Disable any security/antivirus software and download the media again. Mount the media (.ISO file) and try to install again.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to install Windows Server 2008 (dualboot) on a PC with Windows 8.1 already on it?

    Hi, I bought a new PC with preinstalled Windows 8. Now I need to install Windows Server 2008. Anyone can advise me how to
    do it? It has to be in dual boot, in Virtual Machine the display is way too small

    You should check out the Boot-to-VHD capability.
    Here is how we do it in a lab environment which we got from a Microsoft lab:
    -Verify your computer is running Windows 7 or later.
    -Verify you have full administrator rights to your currently installed operating system.
    -Verify hard disk encryption or other pre-boot security is turned off.
    -Confirm that hardware virtualization technology and memory protection are both enabled in your computer's BIOS setup.
    Now we just setup the a VHD with an operating system on it (can even use a downloaded server 180 day trial VHD if you are in a rush). Then go to Disk Management and select Attach VHD and point to the file. Note the drive letter that is assigned to the
    mounted VHD.
    Run a command prompt as administrator and type: " bcdedit /export BCDBackup.bak " to create an exported backup of your boot loader configuration. Now type bcdboot [drive]:\windows.
    Now to test your dual-boot configuration, restart your computer and select the new OS boot option.
    An optional last step would be when complete to restore your boot loader by running "bcdedit /import BCDBackup.bak" and delete any VHD files.
    A more detailed guide written for Windows 7 but still applies for Windows 8 can be found at:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/video/windows-7-boot-from-vhd.aspx
    Hope that helps.

  • Unable to install SQL Server 2012 Developer

    I have a problem with installing SQL Server 2012 (no matter which edition I choose). Installation usually runs well, but near the end shows up an error:
    TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Service Pack 1 Setup
    The following error has occurred:
    Wait on the Database Engine recovery handle failed. Check the SQL Server error log for potential causes.
    For help, click: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?LinkID=20476&ProdName=Microsoft%20SQL%20Server&EvtSrc=setup.rll&EvtID=50000&ProdVer=11.0.3128.0&EvtType=0xD15B4EB2%25400x4BDAF9BA%25401306%254026
    BUTTONS:
    OK
    The help link points to not-existing article on MSDN page. After I click OK button, the installation reaches it's end and shows up another, which tells, that Database Engine Services, Reporting Services - Native, Data Quality Services, Full-Text and Semantic
    Extractions for Search and SQL Server Replication failed to install.
    After that I am able to start, for example SQL Management Studio, but cannot connect to database. Also services of SQL Server (Server, Server Agent, Full-text Filter, Reporting Services) are stopped and I am not able to start them manually (any try throws an
    error: "The request failed or the service did not respond in a timely fashion. Consult the event log or other applicable error logs for details").
    I tried complete reinstalling of SQL Server, cleaning registry entries, different editions of that software - none method helped. Also, I tried the .iso images of installation media on other computers - it worked well and installed without any errors. My OS
    is Windows 8.1 x64.

    Hello,
    Please uninstall SQL server completely from add remove program.Make sure you uninstall it completely
    Now right click on Setup.exe file which is there in SQL Server installable and select run as administrator to start installation.
    On page where you are asked to provide startup account for SQL Server service select NT Authority\System or Local System account.
    This issue is basically after installation SQL Server is not able to bring online database services using account which you selected .Local system account will allow it to come online
    After installation change startup account to domain account with least privilege
    Hope this helps
