Default Re: Snap Server 4500 - No OS installed. :doh:

You will need to purchase the OS from them, $$$. And for a price they will install the os on a HD so you can boot the 4500, more $$$$.

But it requires a working Guardain OS unit to transfer the OS. The OS (GSU) is not an image file, it is the os. So if you can not get access to the recovery console, no way to install gsu. You need a working unit, to transfer the OS to new a new drive. But I do not know any one willing to brake a working raid5 to transfer the os.
