Creating Installation Diskettes for Common
Operating Systems

Use the following general procedure to create installation diskettes with
drivers for the following operating systems:

Novell NetWare (driver CPQARRAY.HAM, version 2.05 or later)

Microsoft Windows NT and Windows 2000

Linux

SCO OpenServer 5 and UnixWare

IBM OS/2

NOTE: If you are using the Banyan VINES operating system, proceed to the next section
to create installation diskettes.

To install the driver, create the diskettes for your operating system. These
diskettes contain the latest drivers and documentation for using Compaq
equipment in your operating system’s environment.

Create the diskettes:

1. Run the SmartStart and Support Software CD in one of the following

ways:

G

From a local CD-ROM on a workstation running Windows 95/98

NOTE: If the AutoRun function is enabled, the CD will start automatically. If AutoRun is not
enabled, browse to or type in the name of the program file on your CD-ROM drive.

G

By booting the server from the CD-ROM

2. At the Compaq System Utilities screen, select the option to create

support software.

3. At the Diskette Builder screen, select the option to create support

software diskettes from the CD only.

4. Scroll through the list and select the appropriate operating system.

5. Follow the instructions for creating and labeling the diskettes.

NOTE: For Linux users, specific information pertaining to your distribution will be present
in a README file on the Linux support diskette.
