Another office in our organization has graciously provided us with a Celerra NS350 that they had purchased and decided not to use. I've got it racked and cabling according to the various bits of documentation available in Powerlink. I have powered it up as follows:

Additional DAE connected to PDUs.
SPS powered off, both sides.
SPEs connected to SPS, one SPE on each side of SPS.
Data Movers disconnected from SPS.
PDU power applied.
SPS power applied, both sides at approximately the same time.
SPEs allowed to boot, waited until amber alert light finished flashing and went dark.
Data Movers connected to SPS at approximately the same time.
Data Movers allowed to boot, waited until amber alert light finished flashing and went dark.
Control station powered on.
Within a few seconds I see Grub pointing at Linux.
Select Linux to boot, see it get to the point where it says it is decompressing the kernel and it says "ok"
It freezes there, nothing else happens.

Any idea what I am missing? I haven't used a Celerra before, but it was my understanding that the control station should boot into linux and allow me to access the shell. Do I need to boot from a CD to wipe the unit? There is currently no data we need to save so it was my intention to update everything and wipe it prior to use.
