I tried to boot OI-hipster-{gui/text}-20190511.iso on a Dell R710 II server and 
was surprised to see it fail.

Gui fails with

        loading SEARCH & SEARCH-EXT words
        loading Johns-Hopkins locals
        loading MARKER

and text fails with

This box was running Solaris and omniosce-r151030h.iso boots fine.

The ISOs are mounted through the virtual device manager of the iDRAC. All the 
firmware is recent and maybe even current. Storage controller is LSI 9211-8i 
with IT firmware.

The same ISOs do boot fine in VirtualBox.

OI-hipster-minimal-20190511.iso WILL boot on this hardware.

Is there something I’m missing or is this a bug?

We are in the process of releasing 2019.10 snapshot, so, new install images should be released relatively soon.

In the meantime, do you mind testing if unofficial images from ftp://openqa.oi.mnowak.cz/ I built on October 15 boot for you?

Thanks,
Michal
