Dontek,

You really need to go download, burn, and install the latest Firmware
ISO (8.00) from the HP site.

There are major updates provided there for multiple system components
due to HP _really_ messing up on supplying decent firmware for their
server platforms.

Thankfully HP puts it all on one CD.

I have OpenBSD 4.2 and 4.3 on several DL360 G2s.  Maybe there's a
compatability problem between your media and the drive?  Make sure your
mainboard and controller firmware are up-to-date and try playing with
the "OS Type" setting in BIOS, and/or APIC settings if they exist.
