Intel® Server Compute Blade SBX44: Installation and User’s Guide
•
Insert the Microsoft* Windows* Server 2003 Enterprise Edition CD into the CD-ROM drive.
The blade server on which the installation will take place starts from the CD. The message
"Setup is inspecting your blade server's hardware configuration" is displayed.
•
If the blade server has a small computer system interface (SCSI) storage expansion unit
installed, press F6 to install a SCSI or redundant array of independent disks (RAID) device
driver. If the blade server does not have a SCSI storage expansion unit installed, continue with
step 5. Prior to proceeding to step 5, extract the LSI drivers from the Resource CD.
•
In the Setup window, specify a controller and press the S key to specify any additional devices
you might want.
•
When you are prompted to insert the manufacturer's hardware support diskette to install the
onboard LSI SCSI controller, insert the diskette that contains the LSI* Logic PCI SCS/FC
device driver into the diskette drive and press Enter.
•
Select the LSI* Logic PCI SCSI/FC MPI Miniport device driver and press Enter.
•
Specify any additional CD-ROM drives you want to use and press Enter.
•
When the Setup window opens, press Enter to install Microsoft* Windows* Server 2003
Enterprise Edition.
•
In the Licensing Agreement window, read the licensing agreement and press the Page Down key
to scroll to the bottom of the window. Then, click "<F8> I Agree". All hard disk drives and drive
partitions that are available on the blade server are displayed.
•
Select one of the following partitioning options:
— To create a partition on a hard disk drive in the blade server, highlight non-partitioned space
for that hard disk drive, and press the C key. You are prompted to indicate how much
available space you want to allocate from the non-partitioned drive. Type the amount of
space (in MB) and press Enter.
— To permanently delete a partition, to allow enough room to create new partitions, press the D
key when the message "Are you sure you want to delete this partition?" is displayed. Press
Enter. The same message is displayed again. Press the L key to permanently delete the
partition.
— When you are prompted to choose a file system, select NTFS file system unless you will
configure the blade server for dual boot with an operating system that does not support NT
File System (NTFS). The formatting process will take up to 20 minutes.
•
The blade server restarts, and the setup wizard installs Microsoft* Windows* Server 2003
Enterprise Edition. When the installation is complete, the Welcome window opens.
•
Click Next. Setup automatically installs device drivers and configures your blade server devices.
This process takes several minutes to complete. Depending on the optional hardware that may be
installed, it may be necessary to install device drivers from the appropriate Resource CD for the
installed item.

In the Regional Settings and Language Options window, make the appropriate modification and
click Next.
