IIRC, it has been a while: once I switched the P420i to HBA/JBOD mode, I think it only supports HBA? It just did not present any option to boot from it either in the controller or BIOS settings.

I think that has gotten better with the RAID controllers present in the G9 and later, but the P420i in the G8 (and G7?) are a bit horrible in that regard.

I ended up putting in an HBA controller which also needed new SAS cables as the ones it shipped with have plugs that are angled at 90° making it impossible to plug 2 of them into the HBA.
