The FieldsNet server is now up and running. I have named it Whitney, after Mount Whitney is Southern California. To get the server up and running I had to remove the RAID array, reconfigure the BIOS and reinstall the server software.
Having done the server install a few times in the last 24 hours made the install go quickly. It was nice to the prompt on the screen after the final reboot of the install.
Since I plan on running this server headless, the next item on the checklist is to operate it remotely via SSH. I will tackle that this evening or tomorrow.
