Installation Tips
NOTE. The SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 EM64T Service Pack 3 CANNOT detect
the floppy with LSI MegaRAID SAS 8204ELP installed. You need an USB floppy
during the installation to load the driver for MegaRAID SAS 8204ELP.
1.
Since SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 EM64T Service Pack 3 cannot
recognize the LSI MegaRAID SAS 8204ELP, you need to make a driver
diskette from the G330 Resource CD build 300 first before the installation.
2.
Please connect the USB floppy to the G330 before you start to install the
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 EM64T Service Pack 3.
3.
Boot the system form SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 EM64T Service Pack3
bootable CD.
