Hello!

Does anyone have any experience with installing CentOS 6 (specfically,
6.8), on a Dell T7910? I've tried at least a dozen installs,
everything gets configured, and when I have the system reboot, I get
'No boot device found press any key to reboot the machine'. In BIOS,
I've enabled AHCI, Legacy boot and modes, and enabled the SAS
controller. The disks are seen and written to. It uses a MPT SAS3 RAID
controller, and I've even specified a 'diskdrive' statement pointing
to the known drivers for the controller, and still nothing. This
system is listed as compatible, but I don't know. Any suggestions or
help appreciated..


Hello,

How is the RAID configured?
it's an MPT SAS3 RAID controller, built in. All 4 disks are RAID 0; I do an LVM setup in my kickstart

Are you using single disk or configured multiple in RAID?
See above

Did you try to install CentOS 7.3 to verify if you'd get the same issue?
CentOS 7.3 doesn't even load. It just hangs.

Try to boot the CentOS Live and check how is/are the disk(s) presented.
