Is that actually a supported configuration (in the Dell-sense)?.

Which is the „primary" hard drive then? SATA or PERC?

Have you booted any other OS on it?
FreeBSD 10?
CentOS7?

Ubuntu?

Note that I have no idea about Dell servers. I’ve never worked with them in my professional life - but my experience is that trying the same thing more than three times in a row is a waste of time (and nerves: I can literally see my life being shortened by watching server-BIOS boot-up screens…)
