Hey everyone. You're dealing with a common issue when setting up Kali Linux on HP Proliant ML350p gen8 servers. The storage size discrepancy is likely due to the way the system identifies available space. Since you have more than 10 TB but only see 8 GB, it might be because the partitioning process is detecting the actual usable space differently. Try checking the disk usage with a tool like `df` or `smartctl` to confirm what's actually available. Also, ensure your ISO is correctly formatted and that you're using the right partition layout for Kali. If the issue persists, consider resetting the partition table or using a different method to verify space before proceeding.

The goal is to use a direct hardware installation of Kali on the server, ensuring compatibility with HBA support in the kernel.

I also adjusted the disks on a different computer using NTFS, which should allow it to identify the drives.

I operate a cybersecurity firm and plan to utilize the server for our remote Kali penetration testing lab, taking advantage of its strong CPU performance for brute-force attacks.

Use FDisk to create a partition of 2TB or less and install it there.
