SuSE Linux Installation
As a Plug and Play device, the Escalade Storage Switch may be
configured to be your system's boot device or you can use another
device, such as a disk attached to the motherboard as your boot
device. Use your system's Setup utility to set the boot order accord-
ing to how you install your operating system.
If you have a new drive configuration without an operating system
and want to install Linux on a drive managed by 3ware's Storage
Switch, follow the instructions in either:
Installing the storage switch while installing SuSE Linux 7.2 or
7.3 with YaST1 (page 108).
The storage switch cannot be installed while installing SuSE with
YaST2. Refer to the SuSE installation instructions to determine
which installation is right for you.
If you are installing the storage switch on a system that already has
the operating system installed on a unit connected to another
switch, follow the instructions in:
Installing the storage switch on systems that boot from a differ-
ent device (page 112).
