1 - Creating a driver diskette

Windows 2000, 2003 and several distributions of Linux and FreeBSD require driver
diskettes when installing the operating system directly to a disk or array hosted by
the Rocket RAID host adapter.
To create a driver floppy diskette:
1. Insert the CD into the system's CD/DVD drive. The program should start
automatically.
2. Insert a blank floppy diskette into the system's floppy drive.
3. Click on "Create Driver Diskette".
4. Click on the "Please Select a Product" drop-down button, and select the appro-
priate host adapter model from the list.
5. Click on the "Please Select the Diskette you want to create" drop-down button,
and select the desired operating system from the list.
6. Click on the "OK" button to create the driver diskette.
