11.1 Instructions on Creating F6 Floppy Diskette
To create an F6 floppy diskette that contains the files that are needed when installing the driver
via an F6 installation method, complete the following steps:
1. Download the Intel Application Accelerator RAID Edition (or use the CD shipped with your
motherboard which contains the Intel Application Accelerator RAID Edition). The Intel
Application Accelerator RAID Edition can be downloaded from the following website:
http://downloadfinder.intel.com/scripts-df/Product_Filter.asp?ProductID=961
2. The following four files need to be copied from the compressed .CAB file (which is
contained inside the Intel Application Accelerator RAID Edition .EXE package):
IASTOR.INF, IASTOR.SYS, IASTOR.CAT, and TXTSETUP.OEM.
3. To extract these files, run 'C:\SETUP.EXE -A -P C:\<path>' (as described in the ‘Advanced
Installation Instructions’ section of the README.TXT.)
4. Once these files have been extracted, copied the IASTOR.INF, IASTOR.SYS,
IASTOR.CAT, and TXTSETUP.OEM files to a floppy diskette. Note: These files should be
in the root directory of the floppy.
Note: Any spaces in the pathname or filename require quotes around the pathname or filename. The
switches do not require quotes. For example:
“C:\My Documents\setup.exe” –A –P
