<snip><div><br></div><div>Oh okay, you're using sanboot against a local drive. That does usually work, but ironically enough, you're the second fellow in as many days to have the exact same problem with a Proliant server here on the list ;)</div>
<div><br></div><div>There was a similar issue regarding virtualbox as well on the list in the past few days, and I typed up a workaround to the problem as an application note on the wiki yesterday, and would love to be able to either verify that it works on other systems, or at least confirm that I should come up with some more options! Care to give it a try? :)</div>
