12.1 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 (or use the CD shipped with your motherboard
which contains the Intel Application Accelerator). The Intel Application Accelerator can be
downloaded from the following website:
http://downloadfinder.intel.com/scripts-df/Product_Filter.asp?ProductID=1809
2. The following files need to be copied from the compressed .CAB file (which is contained
inside the Intel Application Accelerator .EXE package): IAAHCI.CAT, IAACHI.INF,
IASTOR.CAT, IASTOR.INF, IASTOR.SYS, 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, copy the IAAHCI.CAT, IAACHI.INF, IASTOR.CAT,
IASTOR.INF, IASTOR.SYS, 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
