Thread: DSS not booting

  1. #1

    Default DSS not booting

    We have been evaluating DSS on two older machines for the 60 days to test functionality within our environment.

    We repurposed one of our newer machines for testing as it will be the final production server. However the machine does not boot from the cdrom. neither 32 bit or 64bit modes work. When we boot it states that it's loading and then drops to a linux command prompt in ash. I can read the init.log /var/log/init.log

    it states
