Using a driver diskette at United Linux 1.0 / SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 8 Service Pack 3 (x86) installation time allows the most up-to-date driver version included in the diskette to be used, rather than the default driver version contained in the Linux United Linux 1.0 / SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 8 Service Pack 3 (x86) installation CD. FIXES: ~~~~~~ KNOWN ISSUES: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ENHANCEMENTS: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ CREATING A DRIVER DISKETTE -------------------------- There are two methods to create the Installation Diskette: MAKING A DISKETTE UNDER MS-DOS: ------------------------------- 1) Save the "[package name]" file into a temporary directory. 2) Use the "rawrite" utility which is included on the United Linux 1.0 / SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 8 Service Pack 3 (x86) CD. 3) Label a blank, formatted 3.5-inch diskette as "HP United Linux 1.0 / SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 8 Service Pack 3 (x86) Driver Diskette". Next, insert the diskette in the diskette drive. Then, use the following commands (assuming your Disk Image is at the location c: and your CD-ROM is drive d:) C:\> d:\dosutils\rawrite Enter disk image source file name: adpahci.v1.19.V414A19.V041A7.ul10_sp3.i586.img Enter target diskette drive: a: Please insert a formatted diskette into drive A: and press --ENTER-- : Enter MAKING A DISKETTE UNDER A LINUX-LIKE OS: ---------------------------------------- 1) Save the "adpahci.v1.19.V414A19.V041A7.ul10_sp3.i586.img" file into a temporary directory. 2) To make a diskette under Linux (or any other Linux-like operating system), you must have permission to write to the device representing a 3.5-inch diskette drive (known as /dev/fd0 under Linux) 3) First, label a blank, formatted diskette appropriately (HP United Linux 1.0 / SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 8 Service Pack 3 (x86) Driver Diskette). Insert the diskette into the floppy drive, but DO NOT issue the mount command: # dd if=adpahci.v1.19.V414A19.V041A7.ul10_sp3.i586.img of=/dev/fd0 bs=1440k 4) This command creates a diskette containing the image of the input file (adpahci.v1.19.V414A19.V041A7.ul10_sp3.i586.img) to an output file (of=/dev/fd0) using the diskette size of 1440k (1.44MB). To make another diskette label that diskette, and run "dd" again, specifying the correct input file. INSTALLATION ------------ To install Linux using this "HP United Linux 1.0 / SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 8 Service Pack 3 (x86) Driver Diskette", boot your Linux machine with your United Linux 1.0 / SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 8 Service Pack 3 (x86) CD1 in your CD-ROM Drive.
