Chapter 3: 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 or update the RAID card drivers.

The RAID card driver might be included in the Linux OS installation CD, and could be 

loaded automatically during OS installation. However, we recommend using the RAID driver 

packaged in the RAID card support CD for better reliability.

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

support CD or from the Internet.

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

 Server 2003 or Linux

changes, then exit the BIOS Setup.
