Chapter 8: Installing the Driver on an Existing Operating System ● 50 Before You Begin Before you begin, install and connect your Adaptec RAID controller and internal disk drives (see page 31). You must also create a driver disk (see page 43) before you begin installing the controller driver. Creating a Driver Disk Note: You will need a floppy disk to complete this task. To create a driver disk: 1 Set your system BIOS so that your computer boots from the CD drive. (For instructions, refer to your computer's documentation.) 2 Turn on your computer, then insert the RAID Installation CD included in your RAID controller kit. 3 Follow the on-screen instructions to get to the Adaptec Start Menu. 4 Click Create Driver Disk(s) for Installing/Updating your OS, then select your operating system. ● Windows ● Linux ● NetWare ● OpenServer ● Solaris ● UnixWare Note: Linux only-If prompted, select your operating system and then the version. 5 When prompted, insert a floppy disk, then click OK. The system creates the driver disk. 6 Remove and label the driver disk. 7 Continue with the instructions for your operating system: ● For Windows, see page 51. ● For Red Hat or SUSE Linux, see page 51. ● For NetWare, see page 51. ● For OpenServer, see page 52. ● For Solaris, see page 52 ● For UnixWare, see page 53. ● For VMWare, see page 53. ● For FreeBSD, see page 53
