- Enabled iKVM on the server: How to enable IPMI settings in BIOS on Tyan S8225 motherboard.
- In BIOS make sure you have enabled the VGA graphic output and disabled the graphics output on the PCI-X bus (as per the link above)
- The XenServer installer was not able to recognize my AHCI disk driver so I needed to enable a regular 'Native IDE' driver in BIOS (see screen shots below)
- Disable java security permission in Windows (search for 'configure java' under Windows menu)
- Mount the ISO image from the JViewer (java iKVM from ASUS) restart the server and follow the installation instructions :)
- At the beginning of installation you will see that the phase 'Loading /install.img' is taking very long time. Don't panic, watch the network card stats and wait for the installer to start. It can take even up to 10min.
