Copying Configuration Software To Diskettes; Installing Video Drivers; Installing Scsi Drivers - Intel AC450NX Product Manual

NOTE
If you do not see the CD-ROM menu but see the following message instead,
Operating system not found
you need to change the "Boot Device Priority" to the CD-ROM. See
"Server Won't Boot From the CD" on page 38 for instructions.

Copying Configuration Software to Diskettes

When you copy software from the CD onto diskettes, device drivers suitable for several different
operating systems are copied onto the diskettes. However, your operating system will read only
those drivers it can recognize, so you cannot usually check the directory of a diskette that is not
formatted for your operating system. Instead, you may see a message to the effect, "disk not
formatted, do you want to format it now?" Don't worry; the drivers for YOUR operating system
should be present on the diskette and available for you to load on the system.
1. Before starting, make sure that you have on hand several blank high-density diskettes.
2. From the CD-ROM menu bar, select Create Diskettes and press <Enter>.
3. Follow the prompts to copy the software onto the diskettes.
4. When finished, select Quit to DOS (on the CD-ROM menu bar), and press <Enter>.
5. Remove the CD from the drive.

Installing Video Drivers

After configuring the server, you can install various video drivers to take full advantage of the
enhanced features provided by the onboard Cirrus Logic GD5446 PCI VisualMedia accelerator.
The server may not operate properly without these drivers installed.
After copying the drivers from the Configuration Software CD to diskettes, read the
README.TXT file on the Display Drivers and DOS Utilities diskette. The .TXT file contains the
most current information about which video drivers you need to install on your server. Follow the
installation instructions in the README.TXT file.
Follow these steps to install these drivers::
1. Fully configure your server. (This can include adding application software, an ISA add-in
board, PCI add-in boards, and the like.)
2. Insert disk 1 of the video drivers and utilities for MS-DOS
3. At the DOS command prompt, type
4. Follow the onscreen directions to install the video drivers.

Installing SCSI Drivers

After copying the SCSI drivers from the Configuration Software CD to diskettes, follow the
instructions in the README.TXT file on the first diskette to install the drivers.
