You'd probably have more luck with 5.2 or CURRENT.

Note however that ProLiants are very temperamental machines, and you
need to be very careful with your BIOS settings (particularly if you
have any PCI devices in the system that weren't in it when it shipped
from HP)

There's nothing we can do without the specific error messages.
