Dell Poweredge 2600 Install os problem

yes ...

nobody' ? :(

Got to be a little patient :)  The Dell guys are not always here and most of us are volunteers - I was at the gym and couldn't respond immediately.

I would first suspect the FreeBSD media.  

Can you BOOT to that CD on another system?  

Is the media CD or DVD?  If it is DVD, does your system have a CD drive or a DVD drive?

hmm... cdrom detect a cd or dvd ... but don't read ... Driver ? for wath' ? i don't have windows on this server....

I'm not sure I understood much of that last post, but it sounds like your CD-ROM drive is bad.  The 2600 cannot boot to USB devices, so you will need to replace your CD-ROM with a working one.

hmm .... i take a look on dell support and i see this list of OS Supported for Dell Poweredge 2600 :

Netware

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.5

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.7

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.2

SuSE Linux ES 9

SuSE Linux ES 9 SP4 x86_64

Windows 2000

Windows Server 2003

Windows Server 2008 x64

Windows Server 2008 x86

So' ... FreeBSD is not compatible' ? :-s

i have this : Samsung SN-324F.

I make a cd with memtest ... it's work 2 week' ago' ... But now ... can't boot from any cd / dvd... I have windows server 2003 on this server .. but it's gone today' ... In windows no read any cd / dvd .... But small cd appear near mouse ... When i click to cdrom in windows , this say : "Please insert a cd to F:"

PS : i make cd with win server 2003 ... don't work ...

That list doesn't mean FreeBSD is not COMPATIBLE, it means it is not SUPPORTED, which just means that Dell does not provide the drivers - it is up to you to make it work and troubleshoot any issues you encounter ... it does not necessarily mean it won't work.

Your CD drive is DEAD ... replace it or you have no way to install any OS on it.

One more question... If cdrom is dead, why windows detect a cd when insert him?

ok... where i can get a cdrom for him ? wath is connection name? 

but... hdd is not bootable ... is dead ?

It sounded like you said it didn't work with 2003 either ... can you see all the contents of the disk? If so, then you either messed up creating the freebsd CD or you are trying to use a DVD in a CD drive.

I try cd and dvd... Don't read anything... 2003? Windows server 2003 work... This was installed on this server.

ok... i find a cd with' can boot' .... its a Ubuntu BOOTONLY cd ... this can read... so , is alive !! :)) but .. how can read freebsd .... ? i make now a bootonly cd for freebsd.... maybe can boot' from here :d
