What You Need to Do
Either run the utility directly from the Resource CD or from diskettes
created from the CD.
If you run the FRU/SDR Load Utility from a diskette, copy the utility
from the CD. Follow the instructions in the included README.TXT file.
If the diskette drive is disabled, or improperly configured, use BIOS
Setup to enable it. If necessary, disable the drive after you are done
with the FRU/SDR Load Utility.
How You Use the FRU/SDR Load Utility
The utility:
• Is compatible with ROM-DOS Ver. 6.22, MS-DOS Ver. 6.22 (and later
versions), Windows 95 DOS, and Windows 98 DOS
• Accepts CFG, SDR, and FRU load files (the executable file for the
utility is FRU/SDR.exe)
• Requires the following supporting files:
• One or more .fru files describing the system’s field replaceable
units
• A .cfg file describing the system configuration
• An .sdr file describing the sensors in the system
