Internal system problems CD-ROM and DVD drive problems System does not boot from the drive Action: 1. Be sure the drive boot order is set so that the server boots from the CD-ROM drive first. 2. If the CD-ROM drive jumpers are set to CS (the factory default), be sure the CD-ROM drive is installed as device 0 on the cable so that it is in position for the server to boot from the drive. 3. Be sure no loose connections (on page 17) exist. 4. Be sure the media from which you are attempting to boot is not damaged and is a bootable CD. 5. If attempting to boot from a USB CD-ROM drive, refer to the operating system and server documentation to be sure both support booting from a USB CD-ROM drive.
