E Notes on Using External FDD (USB)
This section explains notes on using a USB floppy disk drive.
Notes on FDD (USB) recognition at server startup
If the FDD (USB), with a floppy disk inserted, is not connected at server startup, BIOS cannot recognize
the FDD (USB). During OS installation of Windows/Linux, or when executing Windows Server 2003
ASR, make sure to connect the FDD (USB) with a floppy disk inserted before server startup.
Notes on floppy disk exchange recognition when installing the OS
manually and performing system recovery
When performing system recovery or installing Windows manually using the Windows backup data
with the following software, system recovery/installation might not be performed properly. This is
caused by the device driver being unreadable due to recognition failure of the floppy disk media
replacement.
