Server 2016 installation on Dell r720
asked on
Hi,
I am trying to get an install of server 2016 Standard on a Dell R720. From what i understand that OS install is not supported. Can this be done?
During my attempt i have ran into a message that reads:
"A media drive your computer needs is missing. This could be a DVD, USB or Hard Disk driver. If you have a CD, DVD, or USB flash drive with the driver on it, please insert it now.
Note: If the installation media for Windows is in the DVD drive or on a USB drive, you can safely remove it for this step."
Thank you
Troy
