CREATING A DRIVER DISKETTE

There are two methods to create the Installation Diskette:

MAKING A DISKETTE UNDER MS-DOS:

1) Save the "mptlinux-{version}-(release).{distro}.{buildtype}.dd.gz" file into a temporary directory. 
Use WINZIP to extract "mptlinux-{version}-(release).{distro}.{buildtype}.dd" 
from this file into the same directory.
Please ensure that "mptlinux-{version}-(release).{distro}.{buildtype}.dd" is a DOS 8.3 name. 

2) Use the "rawrite" utility which is included on the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 CD in the "dosutil" directory.

3) Label a blank, formatted 3.5-inch diskette as "ProLiant 64-Bit/133-MHz Ultra320 Adapter Driver Diskette". 
Next, insert the diskette in the diskette drive. Then, use the following commands 
(assuming your ProLiant Disk Image is at the location c: and your CD-ROM is drive d:)

	C:\> d:\dosutils\rawrite 

Enter disk image source file name: mptlinux-{version}-(release).{distro}.{buildtype}.dd
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 "mptlinux-{version}-(release).{distro}.{buildtype}.dd.gz" file into a temporary directory. Use GUNZIP to extract
"mptlinux-{version}-(release).{distro}.{buildtype}.dd" from this file into the same 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 (ProLiant 64-Bit/133-MHz Ultra320 Adapter Driver Diskette). Insert the diskette
into the floppy drive, but DO NOT issue the mount command:

	# dd if=mptlinux-{version}-(release).{distro}.{buildtype}.dd  of=/dev/fd0 bs=1440k

4)  This command creates a diskette containing the image of the input file (Driver Diskette image) to an output
file (Floppy Diskette). To make another diskette run the same "DD" command again.
