After creating the RAID sets for your server system, you are now ready to install
an operating system to the independent hard disk drive or bootable array. This
part provides instructions on how to install the RAID controller drivers during OS
installation.
7.1.1 Creating a RAID driver disk
The system does not include a USB floppy drive. You may have to use a USB
floppy drive when creating a SATA RAID driver disk.
A floppy disk with the RAID driver is required when installing Windows ® Server
or Red Hat ® Enterprise operating system on a hard disk drive that is included
in a RAID set. You can create a RAID driver disk in DOS (using the Makedisk
