hello everyone.
i have two Dell 2650 servers. since they don't have a dvd drive built in, so i am using an external dvd drive. i try to boot up the machine using the external dvd drive, but it give me the error 'no boot device available strike f1 to retry boot f2 for setup utility'. off course, in setup utility, i made it to boot from CD which appear to be the only option, but it just doesn't want to boot. i know the the external dvd drive i am using is in working condition. i have tested it. any ideas? thanks |

is it connected via SATA? If so, look in your BIOS and see if ESATA is a boot option.
