Planning for the Operating System Startup
When you dock the computer to the Dock II, keep in mind the
following.
When installing the operating system, verify the following.
– The configuration of all additional hard disks attached to the
Dock II.
– All external SCSI devices are turned on.
The drive letter assigned to the partitions on the computer and on
the additional hard disk may change when the computer is
docked to the Dock II. When the originally-assigned drive letter
for the hard disk is changed, as shown in the following examples,
the operating system cannot be started up correctly.
