Hello

I have changed the disks of my mac mini server but am having difficulty installing OSX server. This mac does not have a DVD drive.

This is what I did;

- replaced the disks as per instructions on iFixit

- launched remote install on another mac, connected this mac to mini via ethernet, started the mini no problem

- on the mini, in disk utilities, setup the 2 disks as RAID

- then started the install process, no customization

Problem is the install starts, progresses a bit, then stalls (over 3 hours).

I tried re-installing, and reformatting the disks. No success.

Anyone encountered this situation, advice ?

(any extra info I can provide that can help)
