AAA-UDMA Installation and Hardware Guide
Boot Order In Windows NT vs. ARRAYCONFIG UDMA
During Windows NT installation, Windows NT does not show the
devices in the boot order. Instead, it shows the arrays with the lower
ID first. To minimize confusion during Windows NT installation, try
one of the following:
■
Disconnect all devices other than members of the boot array, so
that only one logical device is present in the Windows NT
installation. Reconnect all other devices after Windows NT is
successfully installed.
■
Configure the boot array in the ARRAYCONFIG UDMA util-
ity so that the lowest ID is a member of the boot array.
Microsoft BackOffice Small Business Server
Microsoft BackOffice Small Business Server features a non-bootable
installation CD and setup boot disks which do not ask for a third-
party driver disk. (Manufacturer-supplied hardware support disks.)
To have the installation program prompt you for the third-party
driver disk, do the following:
1
Copy the winnt.sif file from the I386 directory on the
BackOffice Small Business Server CD to Disk 2 of the setup
boot disks (overwrite existing file).
2
Boot the system using the setup boot disks. Press F6 while the
message “
Setup is inspecting your computer system’s
hardware.
..” is displayed.
3
You will be prompted for the driver disk during the
installation process.
