5. Prepare the RAID drivers on a diskette. RAID drivers are shipped with each
factory O.S. for R2200. The RAID drivers are in the folder
c:\drivers\RAID
You need to extract the required files from the iata*.exe file. To extract all the files
make a temporary folder
example: c:\drivers\RAID\extracted
Then extract the files from a DOS command prompt.
> iata51_enu.exe -a -a -p c:\drivers\RAID\extracted
At this point you should have a folder with some newly added files in it. See
c:\drivers\raid\readme.txt for more info.
6. Copy the following files to a formatted diskette:
iaahci.cat
iaahci.inf
iastor.cat
iastor.inf
iastor.sys
txtsetup.oem
Optionally, you can download an updated version of the RAID drivers from the
Intel Matrix Storage Manager web page.
7. Install the Operating System (OS) using a CD. Use F6 to add RAID drivers. Using
a Full Packaged Product (FPP) Microsoft install CD, install the OS. You will need
to supply the 5x5 license key during the install process. You need to have a CD
drive as well as a diskette drive connected to the R2200.
NOTE: XP SP2 Pro and Server 2003 have been validated as installing properly with
RAID in the ClearCube labs.

the Microsoft Windows install screen Press F6 if you need to install a third
party SCSI or RAID driver message. Press F6 when you see the message. This

continues for a few minutes before the "additional drivers" screen actually is
displayed.
