Unable to access virtual drive for OS installation

Dear Team,

Kindly assist with below.

i have created two seperate RAID virtual disks under systems set up on my Dell PowerEdge r760xs, however booting from boot device (USB) to install the OS comes to a point where we can not locate the virtual drives created.

Your urgent assistance will be highly appreciated.

Thank you

@thomas shaanika​ We have also tried changing the boot option between UEFI and BIOS however there is no difference.

The OS needs a driver for the given PERC and inititialization of the VDs needs to be completed.   Problems with BOOT Order you will seen first after the OS installation and on a  reboot ;)
