<body class='hmmessage'><div dir='ltr'>Node is based on Fedora 17, so if you have the same problem with both, that means it is likely upstream on the Fedora end of things. Fedora 18 is due to have support for UEFI, but release has been delayed until Jan 8th at the earliest. If Fedora 18 works, I'd say you'll likely be able to use an oVirt Node based on F18.<BR> <BR>Any way to disable UEFI on your server?<BR> <BR>- Nick<br> <BR><div><div id="SkyDrivePlaceholder"></div><hr id="stopSpelling">From: kurmakwana@gmail.com<br>Date: Sun, 18 Nov 2012 22:39:53 +0530<br>To: users@ovirt.org<br>Subject: Re: [Users] Unable to install ovirt node on IBM system X blade server<br><br>Hello Ovirt Users,<div><br></div><div>Did anyone else also faced same issue or ovirt node not getting installed and servers just reboots when option to install / upgrade / reinstall is used.</div><div><br></div><div>Its on IBM system X server with UEFI.

<div><br></div><div>Server boots up and detects the ISO, gives me initial screen of Install or Upgrade / Reinstall etc. but the moment default install is selected (or it goes into default if initial screen is not interrupted for 30 seconds.) - it just waits for 3-4 seconds and the server is rebooted.

<div><br></div><div>Note : I was able to successfully install RHEV-H and it worked fine. Not sure why ovirt node installation is not even starting and goes into infinite reboot loop with doing anything. </div><div><br></div>
