Hi,
I have HP DL380 G5 server, I am trying to install Red Hat Enterprise Linux Version 3 update 2 into the HP DL380 G5 server. Also, the server is asking for driver, so what do I do? And which Red Hat Enterprise Linux compatible. Please replay me back. Thank you !

First off, extended lifecycle support for RHEL 3.0 ended in 2014. The latest version is RHEL7.2. However, and I don't know whether you aware, you have to pay for maintenance and support of RHEL. You can download the original iso for free but will not receive any updates unless you pay for support.

Centos is a clone of RHEL and IS free. You can download 7.2 here:

I know nothing about the proliant server. From a quick search it seems to be quite old so you may need to play around with a few live versions of Centos first. 6.7 and 5.11 are compatible with RHEL6 & 5 and still have a decent support period.

HTH

G5 Proliants are unlikely to work with RHEL/Centos 7, one problem being lack of support for the old Smartarray driver CCISS. 6.7 should work well though.

The OP's problem may still surface with 6.7. The message asking for a driver disk should identify the piece of hardware that requires a driver. Which is it?

you can use the Original CD to install driver.centos 5.X and centos6.x can install on HP DL380 G5 server
