Copy server 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.

If server won't boot from the CD

boot device. If so, the server will try to boot from a diskette or other device rather than from the
CD we have provided. By pressing <Esc> during POST, you can override the boot sequence
specified in Setup by selecting a different primary boot device. This override is valid only for that
