The drivers required for the OS installation can be found on the EasyBUILD 7.1
build 100. We suggest that you use the drivers contained in the EasyBUILD 7.1
build 100, as these drivers are tested and qualified by Acer.
There are two ways you can get the drivers. You can either make diskettes
from Resource CD, or put the Resource CD in the CD-ROM drive and search the
driver directly from the Resource CD.
NOTE. In this section, we assume the OS is installed on the HDD connected to
the onboard SCSI or integrated SCSI hardware RAID.
NOTE. You need an USB floppy for applying driver during OS installation if
there is no built-in driver for disk controller driver in the OS.
