Chapter 7: Driver installation

After creating the RAID sets for your server system, you are now ready to install 

an operating system to the independent hard disk drive or bootable array. This 

part provides instructions on how to install the RAID controller drivers during OS 

installation.

You may have to use another system to create the RAID driver disk from the 

system/motherboard support CD or from the Internet.

If you have created RAID sets with the LSI Software RAID configuration utility, 

the boot priority of the SATA optical disk drive has to be manually adjusted. 

Otherwise, the system will not boot from the connected SATA ODD. 

A floppy disk with the RAID driver is required when installing Windows

®

  or Red Hat

®

 Enterprise operating system on a hard disk drive that is included in a RAID set. 

You can create a RAID driver disk in DOS (using the Makedisk application in the 

support CD).
To create a RAID driver disk in DOS environment:
1.  Place the motherboard support CD in the optical drive.
2.  Restart the computer, then enter the BIOS Setup.
3.  Select the optical drive as the first boot priority to boot from the support CD. 

Save your changes, then exit the BIOS Setup.

4.  Restart the computer.
5.  Press any key when prompted to boot from CD.

 

The Makedisk menu appears.

6.  Use the arrow keys to select the type of RAID driver disk you want to ceate 

and press <Enter> to enter the sub-menu.
