Has Anyone tried installing Ubuntu 18 on the Dell PowerEdge R620, R720, or R820 ?

There are a bunch of these refurbished units available, but Ubuntu only shows certification to Ubuntu 16 or 14.

However R610 is certified at Ubuntu 18.04...

Tks - Mark

  • I'm trying to install Ubuntu Server 20 on a Dell PowerEdge R710 with hw RAID10 (PERC 6/i) and no success so far. I've also tried lots of previous LTS versions (18, 16 and 14) and still no success. Setup goes smooth, but it falls to GRUB minimal-bash screen. For 18 and 20 live setups I get an error screen telling it couldn't scan my disks. – al'ein Dec 09 '20 at 17:41
  • Does this answer your question? Will my device work with Ubuntu? – Pilot6 Aug 16 '22 at 12:56

Got Ubuntu 20.04 running nicely so far on an R620 or two here. Seems OK, any troubles I'll post further but so far so good.
