ARO-1130U2 Installation and Hardware Guide
Boot Order In Windows NT vs. Array Config U2
During Windows NT installation, Windows NT does not show the
devices in the boot order. Instead, it shows the arrays with the lower
SCSI ID (on lower channel) first. To minimize confusion during
Windows NT installation, try one of the following:
Disconnect all devices other than members of the boot array, so
that only one logical device is present in the Windows NT
installation. Reconnect all other devices after Windows NT is
successfully installed.
Configure the boot array in the ArrayConfigU2 Utility so that
the lowest SCSI ID on the lowest channel is a member of the
boot array.
Microsoft BackOffice Small Business Server
Microsoft BackOffice Small Business Server features a nonbootable
installation CD and setup boot diskettes which do not ask for a
third-party driver disk. (Manufacturer-supplied hardware support
disks.) To have the installation program prompt you for the
third-party driver disk, do the following:
1
Copy the winnt.sif file from the I386 directory on the
BackOffice Small Business Server CD to Disk 2 of the setup
boot diskettes (overwrite existing file).
2
Boot the system using the setup boot diskettes. Press <F6>
while the message "Setup is inspecting your computer
system's hardware..." is displayed.
3
You will be prompted for the driver disk during the
installation process.
