I am attempting to Install CE on a HPE Proliant DL380Gen10 server with 128GB RAM, two Xeon 4116 cpus, one 480 SSD, and four 600Gb HDD’s I created a USB install drive using Rufus and the newest version of CE. I get all of the way through setting up the drives and networking and the process appears to be going well until the part way through the ‘Hypervisor installation in progress’, then fails with Mount /dev/None does not exist message.

This is a known issue that we’ve run into when there is only one SSD in the system.  If you can add a 64GB-128GB SSD to use for the hypervisor then the install will complete successfully.

That appears to have done the trick. It took me a few days to acquire one but CE installed normally after installing the second SSD. Thanks for your help.
