== Installing Ubuntu (2/19/2016) ==
 
First try at installation didn't work when the installer got to the partition disks step, because the SSD and M.2 drives weren't being detected for the partitioner. I suspected that there was a driver missing, but I don't see how we'd be able to install a driver without a proper bash shell (the installer does come with a shell, but it's very limited).
 
Kranthi and I took another look at the PCIe slots on the mobo and it turns out that the two PCIe slots that we had plugged the M.2 drive and SSD into were linked to CPU2, whereas the database server was only configured with one CPU, which was put in CPU1. From pages 2-19 and 2-20 of the [http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/Socket2011-R3/Z10PE-D16/Manual/E10401_Z10PE-D16_Series_UM_V2_WEB.pdf mobo datasheeet], we put the M.2 drive in PCIE1 and the SSD in PCIE3, where are both linked to CPU1 and tried the installation process again.
