hi , 
 
 I have  a hp proliant DL 360 server. actually i tried to install RedHat linux 9 and fedora core 5 . Those Os's are giving me major problems . But RedHat linux 9 , some extend it's good . I could manage to install .
 Actually , i would like to ask you guys , whether gentoo linux can we instal without any problems to that particular machine ?
 If it's possible , can u give me a little guide ? does current gentoo version  supports for server capabilities ?
 
 Thank you,
 Shaine.

I did install gentoo on a DL360 (one Xeon,SCSI but no RAID) without any 
problems. Actually, I wouldn't know what special guide to give. It went 
completely smoothly.

What are your problems?

Works fine with Gentoo from 2005.1 install disk going forward. My 
personal server is one and I have the Compaq RAID card as well which was 
supported without issue though the naming is a bit odd ie /dev/sda1 on 
another system is actually /dev/cciss/c0d0p1 on that system. Keep that 
in mind and follow the install guide and you should have no issues.
