Installing Ubuntu on T320 gives "scanning for devices" freezing message.

Hi,

I have a power edge server T320 that is brand new. I bought it without operating system because I intend to setup my own server based on ubuntu server 14.04.

I booted from usbkey and the installation went fine. On reboot, however, the computer freezes during BIOS loading, i.e., before it actually gets to the point of loading the operating system. The "error" message is "scanning for devices please wait, this may take several minutes", but it never finishes.

What is this about and how can I fix it?

I already tried turning off iDRAC, NIC boot, and other fancy stuff in the BIOS menu that I don't need, but the message persists. The system has a PERC 6/i but I'm not using it now. I only have one HD installed and it is connected directly to the mother board, as the cdrom drive. 

Henrique
